The British Retail Consortium (BRC) Global Standard for Food Safety Issue 6 has been extensively revised in consultation with senior representatives from major retailers and food service companies. One of the key changes for Issue 6 is an expanded section on allergens.

Issue 6 will come into effect in January 2012. Issue 5 can still be used for audits until January 2012. More information can be found on the BRC website.
