| Food Standards Applications and Proposals Tracker | |
 |
The Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code is a constantly changing document. New Applications for changes to the Code are constantly being made by food companies, and new Proposals are constantly being put forward by Food Standards Australia New Zealand (FSANZ) itself to make further changes to the Code. The Code has been adopted as the law by the Food legislation of all Australian jurisdictions. Therefore, you need to know what is happening - irrespective of whether you are interested in food marketing or food technology or working for a government enforcement agency.
The Food Standards Applications and Proposals Tracker keeps track of the progress of Applications and Proposals through the Food Standards Australia New Zealand consideration process and sets out the steps in graphical form. An email notification service is available to subscribers of the FoodLegal Bulletin which can provide you with notifications when an Application or Proposal you are interested in is progressed.
