TRANSFORMATION OF BEER STANDARDS AND THE NEED TO UPDATE THEM

Abstract. The article analyzes the transformation of the content of standards regulating general technical requirements for beer. The necessity of updating them is justified due to significant discrepancies in legal regulation of alcohol turnover, as well as partial inconsistencies between national regulatory and technical documentation and the international classification of goods. The results of this work can be taken into account when updating standards for brewing products and revising a number of regulatory legal acts.

THE EVIDENCE BASE FOR PRODUCT CONFORMITY WITH THE EAEU TECHNICAL REGULATION REQUIREMENTS

Abstract. The article presents the results of a study of the evidence base for conformity with the EAEU technical regulations, formed by conformity assessment schemes which provide a manufacturer’s quality management system certificate (СQMS). It is shown that the procedures established in the technical regulations based on СQMS do not have any value for proving conformity. Recommendations for adjusting conformity assessment schemes are given.

Keywords: technical regulations, evidence base, conformity assessment, quality management system certificate.
