The notified proposed amendment to the Food Health Regulations defines a category within meat products referred to as 'fiambre de' (cold cuts). To date, the Food Health Regulations only mention the term 'fiambre' in Article 305, which specifies the designation 'fiambre de jamón' (cold cuts of ham) without providing further details on the ingredients these products may contain or defining them as such.In preparing the proposed regulatory amendment, consideration was given to the Codex Alimentarius documents, Standard for Luncheon Meat, CXS 89-1981, and Standard for Cooked Cured Ham, CXS 96-198, as well as to Royal Decree No. 474/2014 of Spain, which establishes quality requirements for meat products.
