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.

　　英国——12月13日, 针对消费者的新的食品信息 (FIC)条例将生效。它们包括提供强制性的信息:

　　•未加工的新鲜的、冷藏的和冷冻的猪、绵羊、山羊和家禽肉的原产地;

　　•应提供过敏原情况或营养信息,何时显示这些信息将是强制性的。

　　该法案都是关于食品信息应该如何传递给消费者，并防止标签误导。现有的标签的部分规定(1996年食品标签法》)已经被修订，包括了新的FIC要求。虽然该法案于2014年12月13日生效,但其中的一些条例不会立即强制执行。
