Irland: allergener

«Lov» er en bindende regel. «Offisiell veiledning» er ikke lov, men inspektører forventer det. «Chef Hygiene standard» er en verdi appen sjekker mot der ingen regel oppgir et tall.

• LovFor food that is not prepacked, written allergen information must be given where the food is presented, sold or supplied (S.I. 489/2014, Regulation 4). It must be easy to find before the sale, visible and legible.
• LovThe information must be in English, or in Irish and English, and clearly linked to the right food (S.I. 489/2014, Regulation 5). The FSAI says customers must not have to ask, and a general notice is not enough.
• Offisiell veiledningPhone and app orders: give the information before the order is completed and at delivery, in writing at least once.
• Offisiell veiledningFood packed on site for direct sale counts as non-prepacked food, so the same written rule applies.
