"We have had many discussions in the Environment Committee over the last few years about the labelling of food and drink. Broadly speaking, I think that EU legislation is ensuring clearer and more accurate labelling for the consumer and is helping people to make informed choices about what they eat and drink. This directive adds to that, specifically by requiring the labelling of natural sugars in fruit nectar and by clarifying the rules around ‘no added sugar’ claims. Clear and honest labelling is one of the main tools we have to tackle diet-related problems in the EU, and whilst the Food Information to Consumers Regulation and the Health and Nutrition Claims Regulation provide most of the legal framework for this, additions are sometimes necessary. I would like to thank the rapporteur for his efforts to negotiate with the Council and congratulate him on this report."@en1
