I'd say the new labelling laws are probably a result of animal corpse industry lobbying, too, with the denials suggesting it was anticipated that this would have to be denied. It just fits their previous pattern of behaviour too closely; it seems they still worry very much about the 'analogues'. The way this comes across is that someone decided the previous laws restricting labelling weren't restrictive enough. I don't know them in detail, but I think in Germany they're much stricter than over here.
