CODEX FACTS AND NOTES

A bulletin of information about the FAO/WHO Codex Alimentarius Commission

CODEX FACTS 01-95

FACT SHEET

Codex Facts and Notes: Involving people in the work of the FAO/WHO Codex Alimentarius Commission

How many people know about the "Codex Alimentarius Commission" or what it does to help protect consumers' health and at the same time ensure fair practices in international food trade.

Codex Facts and Notes are now being issued by the Secretariat of the Joint FAO/WHO Food Standards Programme to help people get to know about Codex: people in government, people in industry, people in universities and schools, and everyday consumers. Codex Facts and Notes will he issued through national Codex Contact Points on a regular basis. We plan to issue about 10 Fact Sheets and Notes each year.

Codex Facts will contain information about the Codex Alimentarius Commission and its work. They will announce the publication of Codex food standards, describe the work of the Codex specialist Committees, and provide general factual information.

Codex Notes will keep up-to-date with important developments within Codex, especially for topics that are still being debated by Codex Member Countries.

The Codex Secretariat hopes that Codex Facts and Notes will help people understand the work of the Joint FAO/WHO Food Standards Programme and encourage them to become involved through their national Codex Contact Points with the Commission's work.
