Australia advances labelling change for seafood
Australians will soon be able to select their preferred seafood products in restaurants and cafes, with country-of-origin labelling (CoOL) to be added to menus. Minister for Industry and Science Ed Husic has announced the new labelling initiative is on track to come into effect from 1 July 2025, with a final four-week consultation underway and 12-month transition period to help businesses adjust.
