HC Deb 16 February 1989 vol 147 c339W
69. Mr. Teddy Taylor

To ask the Secretary of State for Health if he will take steps to ensure that consumers are advised promptly and effectively when health hazards related to foodstuffs become known to his Department; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

Action on health hazards related to foodstuffs depends on the nature and seriousness of the hazard. We do ensure that consumers are warned of hazards as quickly as possible.
