§ 10. Mr. Adam Hunterasked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish a list of the regulations he has made regarding standards of hygiene in cafeterias and restaurants.
§ Mr. MillanThe current regulations are the Food Hygiene (Scotland) Regulations 1959, as amended in 1959 and 1961.
§ Mr. HunterDoes not my hon. Friend agree that as an increasing number of Scottish people are eating out, the standards of hygiene in restaurants and cafés should be kept under constant surveillance?
§ Mr. MillanThe standards are kept under surveillance, as I said in answer to a previous Question. The primary responsibility is with the local authorities, and I am not aware that they are not carrying out their obligations in this respect.
