HC Deb 10 December 1990 vol 182 cc287-8W
Mr. Madden

To ask the Secretary of State for Health what action he is taking to control campylobacter infection to prevent infection entering kitchens and food manufacturing premises; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Dorrell

Attention to good food hygiene practice will help to prevent all forms of foodborne infection.

Guidance for the consumer is given in the leaflet "Food Safety: A Guild from Her Majesty's Government" copies of which are available in the Library. Food manufacturers are responsible for the microbiological safety of their processes. This responsibility is clearly set out in the Food Safety Act 1990.
