A-20.03 - Act respecting reserved designations and added-value claims
Section 30
Disposition versions
30. When one or more certification bodies have demonstrated to the Board that they meet the standards and criteria set out in the applicable accreditation manual and have provided the documents and information required by regulation of the Minister, the Minister, on the recommendation of the Board,
(1) recognizes the reserved designation concerned; or
(2) makes a regulation to authorize an added-value claim and define the standards with which products must comply in order to qualify for it.
If the reserved designation or added-value claim is for a product that contains alcohol within the meaning of the Act respecting offences relating to alcoholic beverages (chapter I-8.1), the Minister must, in addition, obtain the opinion of the Minister responsible for the administration of that Act and the opinion of the Minister responsible for the administration of Divisions III and IV of the Act respecting the Société des alcools du Québec (chapter S-13).
