Asks for views on draft regulation that will amend the Infant Formula and Follow-on Formula (England) Regulations 2007
Detail
We are seeking views on proposals to amend the Infant Formula and Follow-on Formula (England) Regulations 2007 (as amended). The proposals will put into place EU rule changes that:
-
allow the use of goats’ milk protein in the manufacturer of formula milks
-
lower the minimum protein levels allowed in follow-on formula made from protein hydrolysates, to bring it in line with that for infant formula
