(31a) In its March 2017 report regarding the mandatory labelling of the list of ingredients and the nutritional declaration of alcoholic beverages, the Commission stated that it has not identified objective grounds that would justify the absence of information on ingredients and nutrition information and invited the industry to develop within a year a self-regulatory proposal aimed at providing information ingredients and nutrition of all alcoholic beverages. In order to ensure a high level of consumer protection, the self-regulatory approach should, as a minimum, ensure that ingredients and nutritional information is provided on-label and that such information complies with stipulations on 'Voluntary Food Information'' as set out in Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011. The Commission should assess the industry's proposals and publish a report, accompanied, if appropriate, by a legislative proposal, with appropriate exemptions for microproducers.
