The following are a few of the samples upon which the Public Analyst
reported adversely:—
Imported canned smoked saithe which, on analysis, was found to
contain a preservative, contrary to the Public Health (Preservatives, etc.,
in Food) Regulations, 1925-58. After a prolonged investigation it was
ascertained that the importers had taken reasonable steps to ensure
compliance on the part of the foreign manufacturers with the provisions
of the Regulations. A cautionary letter was sent to each importer.
