Conclusions
Scope of the SSC Code
The SSC Code should cover any environmental claim on all types of seafood product;
AND any commercial communication made in the context of fish.
Commercial communications include all labelling, presentation or advertising of foods
to be delivered as such to the final consumer1 (e.g. product labels, in-store signs,
internet descriptions, magazines, advertisements, images or logos that portray the
product origin/claim/information, social media, and direct consumer communications).
Provisions for label positioning on products are outside scope of this code.
