The subject of dietary supplements was last considered by codex at the beginning of October this year, when further consideration was given to proposed guidelines for dietary supplements containing vitamins and minerals. The UK delegation at the meeting sought to ensure that draft guidelines reflected the approach currently taken in the UK.
