WASHINGTON, July 17 -- Food and Drug Administration has issued a proposed rule called: Proposal To Revoke 18 Standards of Identity for Dairy Products.
The proposed rule was published in the Federal Register on July 17 by Robert F. Kennedy, Secretary, Department of Health and Human Services.
Summary: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or we) is proposing to revoke 18 standards of identity for dairy products.

This proposed action would reduce redundant regulatory requirements.
