UK - On 13th December, the new Food Information to Consumers’ (FIC) regulations will come into force. They cover provision of mandatory information regarding:

　　· Origin on unprocessed fresh, chilled and frozen meat of swine, sheep, goats and poultry;

　　· And how Allergen or Nutritional information should be provided and when display of this information will become mandatory.

　　The act is all about how food information should be communicated to the consumer and protection against misleading labeling. Some parts of the existing labeling regulations (1996 Food Labeling Act) have been amended to include any new requirements of the FIC. While the act comes into force on 13th December 2014, some parts of it will not be mandatory immediately.

　　英國——12月13日, 針對消費者的新的食品信息 (FIC)條例將生效。它們包括提供強製性的信息:

　　•未加工的新鮮的、冷藏的和冷凍的豬、綿羊、山羊和家禽肉的原產地;

　　•應提供過敏原情況或營養信息,何時顯示這些信息將是強製性的。

　　該法案都是關於食品信息應該如何傳遞給消費者，並防止標簽誤導。現有的標簽的部分規定(1996年食品標簽法》)已經被修訂，包括了新的FIC要求。雖然該法案於2014年12月13日生效,但其中的一些條例不會立即強製執行。
