“Meeting the needs of the consumer is at the heart of changes,” said Alasdair Tucker, head of regulatory affairs at Premier Foods and chairman of the Food and Drink Federation’s Food Law & Labelling Committee.
Tucker is one of four expert speakers who will be taking part in the Food Manufacture Group’s free-to-attend one-hour webinar – Food Information to Consumers Regulation: what you need to know – at 11am GMT on Thursday 20 February.
‘Devil is in the detail’
“While in essence, the changes required by regulation should be evolution rather than revolution the ‘devil is in the detail’,” said Tucker. “Subtle changes the consumer may see require a more fundamental review of the collation and presentation of information on behalf of the manufacturer.”
Taking part in the webinar, in addition to Premier Foods, will be research organisation Campden BRI, the Trading Standards Institute and law firm and event sponsor DWF.
The full line-up will be:
Alasdair Tucker, head of regulatory affairs at Premier Foods and chairman of the Food and Drink Federation’s Food Law & Labelling Committee, on how one of Britain’s largest food manufacturers is preparing for the changes enshrined in the Food Information Regulation.
Steve Spice, head of regulatory affairs at Campden BRI, on how food and drink businesses should be preparing to comply with the new leglislation.
Corinne Lowe, joint lead officer food and nutrition, Trading Standards Institute on the impact of the new rules and how they are likely to be policed.
