description
1. The defendant was convicted for the offence under Section 18(3); in the course of carrying on the said food business between 27 June 2013 and 24 January 2014 did sell a packaged food, namely “Natural Coconut Drink”, that was labelled in a way that falsely described the food in that, as provided under section 22 of the Food Act 2003: - On the label of the food, the food was represented as being of a particular nature or substance, namely a “fruit drink”, for which there is a prescribed standard under the Food Standards Code, namely Standard 2.6.2. - The food did not comply with that prescribed standard, in that it contained milk or milk product, namely “condensed milk”, by reason of the presence of milk protein. - The definition for a “fruit drink” under the Standard does not include milk, milk product or milk protein, as a food from which it can be prepared: s22(1)(a). - The words “Natural Coconut Drink” and design used in the labelling of the food, in addition to the absence of any reference to milk, milk product or milk protein on the label, would create a false impression as to the nature or substance of the food in the mind of a reasonable person, in that they conveyed to the reasonable person that the contents of the food was primarily derived from coconut fruit, the food containing no ingredients or content of milk, milk product or milk protein: s22(1)(e). - The said food was not of the nature or substance represented by the manner in which it was labelled for sale, in that it contained milk or milk product, namely “condensed milk”, by reason of the presence of milk protein, which was not declared or described on the label as an ingredient or as present in the said food: s22(1)(f).   2. The defendant was convicted for the offence under Section 21(3); between 27 June 2013 and 24 January 2014 did sell food, namely a packaged food, that was labelled as “Natural Coconut Drink”, and that label contravened a provision of the Food Standards Code, (“the Code”), namely Clause 4 of Standard 1.2.3 of the Code in that: - The said food contained, as an ingredient, milk or milk product, namely condensed milk, by reason of the presence of milk protein in the food. - Clause 4 of Standard 1.2.3 of the Code requires those substances listed in the Table to clause 4 be declared on the label on a package of food, where present as an ingredient. Included in the Table is a reference to “Milk and milk products.” - The presence of the said ingredient was not declared on the label on the package of the said food.   3. The defendant was convicted for the offence under Section 18(3); in the course of carrying on the said food business, on the 23 January 2014 did sell a packaged food, namely “Green Time Coconut Drink” that was labelled in a way that falsely described the food in that, as provided under section 22 of the Food Act 2003: - On the label of the food, the food was represented as being of a particular nature or substance, namely a “fruit drink”, for which there is a prescribed standard under the Food Standards Code, namely Standard 2.6.2 (s22(1)(a)). - The food did not comply with that prescribed standard, in that it contained milk or milk product, namely “condensed milk”, by reason of the presence of milk protein. - The definition for a “fruit drink” under Standard 2.6.2 does not include milk, milk product or milk protein, as a food from which it can be prepared (s22(1)(a)). - The said food was not of the nature or substance represented by the manner in which it was labelled for sale as a “fruit drink”, in that it did not meet the requirements of Standard 2.6.2 for it to be a “fruit drink” (in that it contained milk or milk product (namely “condensed milk”) by reason of the presence of milk protein) (s22(1)(f)).
