Joint AGRI/ENVI hearing on Labelling of Origin for Agricultural and Food Products
On Monday 4 June 2018 the Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development (AGRI) in association with the Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety (ENVI) are organising a public hearing entitled "Labelling of Origin for Agricultural and Food Products".
The hearing aims at discussing the implementation of national labelling schemes in Italy, Finland, France and other countries, and whether the draft implementing act laying down rules for indicating the country of origin or place of provenance of foods (Article 26(3) of Reg. 1169/2011), which is planned to be adopted soon, is a sufficient response to consumers asking for more transparency and to the needs of actors throughout the food supply chain.
Location: European Parliament, Paul Henri Spaak building, Room 3C50, Brussels
