*Australasia – *Governmental food ministers [have reportedly approved](https://urlsand.esvalabs.com/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.fivs.org%3Fmailpoet_router%26endpoint%3Dtrack%26action%3Dclick%26data%3DWyIxNDA2IiwiMWZmZHgzYTFyaTVjb284bzgwMHNvY2s0YzR3NG84ODQiLCIzNzQiLCI3ZDVlZDQxYzJjYmIiLGZhbHNlXQ&e=2754343e&h=7136f711&f=n&p=y) the mandatory black, white, and red text label stating “PREGNANCY WARNING: Alcohol can cause lifelong harm to your baby” recommended by Food Standards Australia and New Zealand. An amendment to remove the red ink requirement was voted down. Manufacturers must implement the new label on alcohol bottles of 200 ml or more, with smaller bottles to display the pictogram, which will now have to be black, white, and red.
