HC Deb 08 December 1960 vol 631 c161W
52. Mrs. Butler

asked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what action he is taking to prohibit the use of suspect food preservatives and colouring materials until they have been proved harmless.

Mr. Vane

The Preservatives in Food Regulations and the Colouring Matter in Food Regulations already prohibit the use of all preservatives and colours except those specifically authorised for use in foods.
