Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) is calling for comment on a proposal to make minor amendments to the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code.
FSANZ periodically prepares a proposal to correct typographical errors, omissions, inconsistencies and formatting issues in the Code.
Proposal P1063 will correct a typographical error and remove a redundant term from the conditions for no added sugar(s) claims gazetted under Proposal P1062 - Defining added sugars for claims.
To have your say about this proposal, see our call for comment page. Submissions close at 6pm (AEDT) on 27 June 2024.
What happens to my feedback?
Submissions will be published to our website as soon as possible after the end of the public comment period.
FSANZ will consider all feedback received through the submission process before deciding on whether to approve the proposal.
FSANZ's decision will be notified to ministers responsible for food regulation who can ask for a review or agree that the standard should become law.
