Governance Group decision 06/2015- Compatibility of the Italian legislation with the Supply Chain Initiative

The Governance Group received a request from the associations Federdistribuzione, ANCC Coop and ANCD Conad (representing 75.5% of the retail sector) for mutual recognition of the Italian legislation with the EU-level Supply Chain Initiative.

The Italian legislation in question is comprised of Article 62 (Decree Law 1/2012) () and the October 2012. The official request for recognition included and was based on the completed table of compatibility of national schemes with the EU initiative (Annex II).

Having considered the Principles of Good Practices in Vertical relationships in the Food Supply Chain and the Framework for the implementation and enforcement of such Principles, the Governance Group hereby recognises the equivalence of the Italian legislation with the Supply Chain Initiative on the basis of the aforementioned documents.
