Imported product Two submissions called for the mandatory labelling of imported seafood at the food service level.
The Code stipulates that food must be labelled at the retail level but not at the restaurant level. Food service establishments are obliged to tell the truth when asked about the origin of the seafood.
Several submissions also made mention of imported product in terms of how the standard would apply at the border.
Discussions are progressing between AQIS and FSANZ on the development of a system to improve the enforcement of outcomes-bases standards at the border.
