The Legislation Update Service provides organisations in England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland with bespoke food legal registers and is aimed primarily at providing organisations with all of the food related legislation applicable to them, irrespective of which part of the food processing chain applies. The food register is also designed to support organisations to meet all of the compliance requirements within current food safety management systems standards, including ISO 22000.
Subscription to the Legislation Update Service also provides you with a monthly newsletter, updating you on all the new and amended food legislation which is relevant to your business.
The newsletter is emailed to all nominated personnel and in addition to informing you of relevant new and amended food legislation, it also contains information on food related news, consultations, case law, prosecutions and product recalls. The newsletter also contains links which will take you directly to the relevant part of your food legal register, making it easy to find and access the information that has been updated.
The newsletters are also stored in the newsletter section of your food legal register, so that they are accessible for review at any time.
The newsletter is also available as a separate subscription service if you wish to be kept informed of changes to food legislation but do not require a legal register.
The food legal register includes Acts, Directives, Orders, Regulations and relevant guidance documents, including Codex, covering England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. The content of the legal register is structured under the food chapter headings as outlined below. Also listed are a few examples of the law contained within each chapter.
