Intent: A change to the legislation that will clearly identify the Country of Origin for ALL FOOD PRODUCTS using the example presently we see EU Meat/Vegetables/Chicken or it just says NON EU. What we are proposing to happen is A clearer label larger that 10pt text, in a colour that is easy to see on the front of packaging - and reads (EU - Spain) NON EU - England/ Brazil etc - this will be on-going for a few sessions going into 2027
Methods: EmailMeeting

Email
Again similar to above - requesting a meeting and/or sending a brief outline of our intended discussion
Meeting
These would range from requested meetings with the DPO's where we would present a document of our findings and what we had observed and noted and dated so they had a starting point, or there were also times that we would meet at another event and there would be updates or further info sought
