Charitable institutions

Charitable institutions

Charitable institutions providing food at a physical location or as a delivered service in the community are included in the list under 6(a) and must provide written information about food allergens in non-prepacked food. As such food is not purchased per se, the requirement to provide written information on food allergens for off-site consumption would apply at the point of presentation or supply. The provision of written information on food allergens may need to be supplemented with verbal communication where it is established that an individual cannot avail of the written information.

(d) Detention facilities

Detention facilities that provide food to individuals or groups of individuals outside of regular catering areas must provide written information on food allergens prior to presentation or supply of that food particularly where new or altered menu items become available.

The provision of written information on food allergens may need to be supplemented with verbal communication where it is established that an individual cannot avail of the written information.
