嬰兒配方產品營養成分組合和營養標籤規定已於12日13日生效
Regulations on nutritional composition and nutrition labelling of infant formula take effect on 13 Dec

政府就規管嬰兒配方產品的營養成分組合和營養標籤訂立的新規定，已於12日13日起實施。新修訂的《食物及藥物（成分組合及標籤）規例》規定所有嬰兒配方產品必須符合營養成分組合規定，而所有供三十六個月以下嬰幼兒食用的嬰兒配方產品、較大嬰兒及幼兒配方產品及預先包裝嬰幼兒食物必須加上營養標籤，以保障食用該等產品的嬰幼兒的健康，並協助家長作出有依據的食物選擇，以及鼓勵食物製造商提供符合營養準則的嬰幼兒配方產品和食品。
The newly amended Food and Drugs (Composition and Labelling) Regulation (Amendment Regulation) regulates the nutritional composition of infant formula and mandates the nutrition labelling of infant formula, follow-up formula and prepackaged food for infants and young children under the age of 36 months, so as to protect the health of infants and young children who consume the products, assist parents in making informed food choices, and encourage food manufacturers to apply sound nutrition principles in the formulation of formula products and foods for infants and young children.
