safefood Research Tender - “Ensuring food allergen understanding and labelling compliance for non-prepacked foods in the Catering & Hospitality sector”

It is now just under ten years since the coming into force of Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 on the provision of food information to consumers (the ‘Food Information to Consumers or ’FIC’) . safefood, the Food Safety Promotion Board, together with the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) and the Food Standards Agency in Northern Ireland, (FSANI) would like to ascertain what specific types of catering outlet continue to have difficulties with the implementation of the FIC legislation. The common goal for all three agencies is how we can assist these businesses in protecting the health of their food hypersensitive customers (and by extension their businesses as well) and meet their legislative requirements. We wish to ascertain if non-compliances are spread equally throughout the Catering & Hospitality (C&H) sector or are localised to specific types of food businesses. This project will investigate the adequacy of the allergen ingredient information, and staff competency and awareness of the issue in catering businesses such as restaurants, takeaways, hotels, cafes, etc. in Ireland and Northern Ireland.
