§ Mrs. GilroyTo ask the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what plans he has for introducing regulations to ensure that only appropriate and food-compatible lubricants are used in food-handling machinery. [28743]
§ Mr. RookerAs the production or sale of any food which is injurious to health or unfit for human consumption is already an offence under the Food Safety Act 1990, we see no need at present to introduce regulations specifically relating to lubricants used in food-handling machinery.
