Standard 1.2.8

Nutrition Information Requirements

Purpose

This Standard sets out nutrition information requirements in relation to food that is required to be labelled under this Code and for food exempt from these labelling requirements. This Standard prescribes when nutritional information must be provided, and the manner in which such information is provided.

This Standard does not apply to infant formula products except where Standard 2.9.1 (Infant Formula Products) otherwise provides. Standard 2.9.1 sets out specific nutrition labelling requirements that apply to infant formula products. Standard 1.3.2 (Vitamins and Minerals) sets out the labelling requirements for claims made about the vitamin and mineral content of foods.

As the Gazette has been published for more than 185 years, copyright status depends on the publication date of each issue:

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ...
