In this session the latest development in the projects in the horizontal RTD activity on traceability were reported. The three projects are METHODS, IMPLEM and VALID, indicating the contents as concerning methodology, implementation and validation respectively. Within the first of these projects a new manual for Good Traceability Practice, to be used by the industry, was presented. In the second project, IMPLEM, extensive tests have been performed for implementing the use of RFID tags for carrying relevant traceability information. In the last of the three projects, VALID, a database on DNA sequences has been established for 53 fish species.
