Proposal to tackle shrinkflation in supermarkets more effectively

Official title: Voorstel van resolutie over de strijd tegen krimpflatie.

Status: Parliament is still discussing this proposal, for example in a committee or while waiting for advice. (parliament: ‘Pending in the Chamber’)

In plain language

  • This proposal asks the federal government to research shrinkflation and advocate for EU rules that require clear notices whenever a product shrinks without a price decrease.
  • Manufacturers and stores will have to be transparent about smaller packaging, while government agencies monitor price changes more closely.
  • You will be able to see more easily in the supermarket if a familiar product contains less than before, helping you avoid unknowingly paying the same for less.
