Traceability and consumer information under EU fisheries control measures and fish marketing requirements Version 4
- Summary
- European fisheries control measures apply minimum labelling and information requirements throughout the supply chain for certain fisheries and aquaculture products whilst under marketing requirements the consumer and mass caterers must be provided with prescribed catch information. Mass caterers include businesses such as restaurants and takeaways in which food is prepared for consumption by the consumer. The requirements do not apply to all fishery products and some exempted from fisheries control are not exempt under marketing. Under Parts I and II this document provides guidance on which products the traceability and consumer information apply to and what information is required within the supply chain and ultimately for consumers and mass caterers. This document consolidates and updates previous guides on information and traceability requirements in the fisheries control regulation (EC) 1224/2009 and the common organisation of the markets regulation (EU) 1379/2013 into a single guide.
