HC Deb 16 June 1955 vol 542 c19W
56. Mr. G. Darling

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food when he proposes to implement the provisions of the Food and Drugs (Amendment) Act, 1954.

Mr. Amory

This Act cannot be brought into operation until certain regulations replacing provisions of existing legislation have been considered by the Food Hygiene Advisory Council and are ready to be made. I understand that the Council proposes to consider the draft regulations early next month. The new Act will be put into force and the regulations made at the earliest date possible after I have received their advice.
