FSANZ invites comment on food standards
Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) today invited comment on proposed changes to the Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code.
FSANZ is considering the deletion of two antibiotics from the code, the use of steviol glycosides and cyclamates as sugar substitutes, a genetically modified corn variety and a food additive for wine.
Comment is invited from the general public, the food industry, health professionals and government agencies on the proposed changes.
All submissions will be summarised in a final report, along with any answering response or actions taken.
Details of all the assessments can be found on www.foodstandards.gov.au. Submissions close on 4 July 2007.
