EU recognises central role of Codex in sustainable food systems.
Feb 28, 2022
At a meeting in Brussels, the European Union Ministers of Agriculture, confirmed the EU's commitment to the work of Codex, and underlined the need for sustainability considerations to be given greater prominence in the setting of food safety standards for international trade.
In the conclusions approved at the Agriculture and Fisheries Council, Ministers recognised the central role of the Codex Alimentarius Commission (CAC), in facilitating the transition to sustainable food systems and reaffirmed the EU's determination to maintain fair trade practices and health-protective standards. They also underlined the EU's willingness to explore, with its partners, all pragmatic ways to integrate sustainability considerations into the work of the CAC, in line with the commitments made by its members at international level.
Julien Denormandie, French Minister for Agriculture and Food, said, 'As a member of the Codex Alimentarius Commission, the European Union plays a key role in ensuring high standards for internationally traded food products. It is necessary to add an environmental dimension to these standards, in order to successfully make the transition to sustainable food systems.'
In its conclusions, the Council recognised the essential work of Codex in ensuring that food products meet the highest possible safety standards. However, it recognised that Codex must evolve to meet recent developments, including increased environmental challenges and changing consumer expectations regarding health, food and nutrition. Ministers also asked the CAC to improve the coordination of standardisation work between international and intergovernmental organisations.
