Monitoring food businesses to ensure compliance with legislation on food labelling and composition is the responsibility of county councils, unitary authorities, the London Boroughs and some but not all metropolitan borough councils. These local authorities are also responsible for taking enforcement action, including prosecutions, where non-compliance is found.<\/p>

Data is reported to the Food Standards Agency (FSA) on the number of food analyses undertaken in relation to compositional issues and labelling and presentation issues; 23,599 analyses were undertaken in 2014/15, 16,899 for compositional issues and 6,700 for labelling and presentation issues.<\/p>

Data is also reported to the FSA on the total number of prosecutions concluded for food standards issues. This includes action in relation to composition, labelling and presentation but also for other issues such as chemical contamination. In 2014/15, 75 United Kingdom food establishments were subject to prosecution.<\/p>

The FSA has recently established a central register of successful food law prosecutions. Data collected for the first year of operation of the register is not yet complete, but in future it will provide more definitive data on prosecutions for offences of this nature.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3918", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Jane Ellison"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Battersea"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jane Ellison"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2016-04-29", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2016-04-29T12:42:33.6Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2016-04-21", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Food: Labelling"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health, how many (a) incidents have been reported to trading standards teams of and (b) prosecutions have taken place for food with falsely-labelled ingredients in the most recent period for which figures are available.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/3928", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Nick Smith"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Blaenau Gwent"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Nick Smith"} ], "uin" : "35064"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/514744", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Ministry of Defence"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/514744/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

It is not possible to provide a breakdown of expenditure on food and drink solely for the Department\u2019s building in Whitehall. The Department has spent the following on food and drink procured for Departmental offices in each of the last three financial years:<\/p>

<\/p>

Financial year £<\/p>

2013-14 193,591.20<\/p>

2014-15 159,460.39<\/p>

2015-16 118,364.32<\/p>

These costs include the provision of refreshments for external meetings and visitors hosted in the Department's buildings. Departmental policy is not to provide refreshments for internal meetings.<\/p>

<\/strong><\/p>

52% of all food procured for the Department was sourced from British producers for the last reporting period, January to March 2016.<\/p>

This figure is skewed by the considerable spend on non-indigenous products purchased including large volumes of coffee as well as rice, pasta, tea, bananas, citrus, and exotic fruits. In terms of primary products we can confirm that:<\/p>

\u2015 100% of Beef is sourced from the United Kingdom<\/p>

\u2015 100% of Chicken is sourced from the UK<\/p>

\u2015 100% of Lamb is sourced from the UK<\/p>

\u2015 100% of Pork is sourced from the UK<\/p>

\u2015 100% of Free Range Eggs are sourced from the UK<\/p>
