Shadow Parliamentary Under Secretary (Business and Trade), Shadow Parliamentary Under Secretary (Transport)
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, whether he plans to roll out the not for sale in EU labelling scheme in October 2024.
Daniel Zeichner
The Minister of State, Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
The Government is committed to implementing its obligations under the Windsor Framework in good faith, including commitments on the use of 'Not for EU labels', as well as taking all steps necessary to protect the UK internal market. As per guidance published on GOV.UK, from 1 October 2024 milk and dairy products moving under the Northern Ireland Retail Movement Scheme will need to be individually labelled.
The previous Government held a consultation on extending the ‘not for EU’ labelling requirements across Great Britain earlier this year and this, as well as further discussion with business, will inform our future approach.
