CODEX / NUTRITION - CCNFSDU / willingness to complete work ensures follow-up formula text adopted

The Codex Committee on Nutrition and Foods for Special Dietary Uses (CCNFSDU) met virtually on 15 March 2023 to successfully adopt the report of the session, sending the “Standard for Follow-Up Formula for Older Infants and Product for Young Children” for final adoption by the Codex Alimentarius Commission in November this year.

The Chairperson of CCNFSDU Anja Brönstrup, Germany, congratulated the committee on its work, the milestones achieved and the special willingness amongst delegates to complete topics some of which, such as work on infant and follow-up formula, had been 10 years in the development.

She looked forward to the same spirit prevailing amongst delegates, over 150 of whom attended the virtual adoption, as work advances in the committee on nutrient reference values, methods of analysis, alignment of food additive provisions and other topics and new work.
