Legislative Proposals on Regulation of Edible Fats and Oils and Recycling of “Waste Cooking Oils”

The Chamber supports the protection and promotion of public health as it is important to Hong Kong’s sustainable development. We believe that an effective regime will not be achieved by over-regulation, but rather, there should be a combination of sensible regulation, business-friendly compliance and effective public education.

We would like to stress that any new regulation should not add unnecessary burden to the operating cost of business nor become a trade barrier limiting consumer choices.
