Details

Food is a particularly important aspect of the Irish economy. In 2013, the Department of Agriculture, Food and Marine estimated that turnover in the food and drink sector was over €26 billion. The sector continues to grow and has played a very significant role in Ireland's economic recovery. This important new book provides a much needed overview of the field, looking at:

  • the history and development of food law
  • the relationship between international EU and domestic law
  • the key areas in food law;- rules on free movement of food
  • food safety
  • food labelling and advertising
  • protected food names
  • nutrition, obesity and health
