The draft advice will be sent out for a full public consultation in the summer of 2005.
“The Agency has been aware of consumer concerns relating to food being labelled as suitable for vegetarians and vegans, and held a stakeholder meeting to discuss vegetarian and vegan labelling on 12 October 2004,” the FSA said.
Notes of the meeting can be found here.
