Meat Labelling (Ongoing)
The Commission in collaboration with other Authorities, played a crucial role in the USALAMA VIII Operations held between 19th to 23rd September, 2022. During these operations, officers observed a significant number of locally packaged meat that did not meet the requirements of the Fair Trading (Consumer Protection) Product Labelling and Trade Description Regulations. The Commission informed the meat manufacturers about the requirements of the regulation through a letter. Additionally a press release was issued advising them to review their practices to ensure adherence to the regulations by 15th January 2024. The Commission is still working with certain manufacturers to make sure that they adhere to the regulation.
