Sustainable Seafood Coalition (SSC) Labelling working group meeting minutes - 15th June 2011 Wild capture food

Agenda Item 1: Labelling Overviews
1. Began with three presentations:
• Overview of current laws, typical labels found on seafood today and aim of SSC
‘Labelling’ working group.
• Consumer perspective on existing labels.
• Industry perspective on labelling.
2. Some preliminary issues and discussion arising from the presentations were as follows:
• Labelling products from all the individual seas around the world and the high
seas would be potentially very difficult – there are thousands.
