Recital 63

(63) Since the control system laid down in this Regulation follows a public-private approach, producers themselves should also contribute to the protection of geographical indications. They should perform compliance checks to verify the compliance of the product with the product specification, accompanied, as applicable, by internal compliance checks managed and organised by the relevant producer group. In addition, producers should be encouraged to support public authorities in monitoring the use of geographical indications in the market. Producers should also be encouraged to notify to the competent authorities any cases of non-compliance or possible infringements.
