Codex Alimentarius Commission Procedural Manual

Abstract

This 28th edition, published to coincide with the 60th anniversary of the Commission in 2023, sees the first departure in format and layout in the lifetime of this text. From approximately 17 500 words in its first edition to over 60 000 in the current version, the PM, as it is universally known in Codex, required a thorough review for consistency and alignment with industry standard editorial guidelines. With the introduction of uniform section headings, list formats, numbering, spelling, referencing and numerous additional adjustments, the Codex Procedural Manual is now a standard for Codex in its own right
