A Victorian egg producer has paid almost $40,000 in penalties for falsely claiming its eggs were free range. Doreen Egg Farm, which is based on the outskirts of Melbourne, paid $39,600 in penalties after the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) issued two infringement notices. Doreen Egg admitted it sold eggs labelled as "free range" despite its hens not having access to an outdoor range, as required under Free Range Egg Labelling Information Standard.
