    2o Miscellaneous Samples 21 samples of articles other than milk were obtained. One sample, which consisted of beef sausage meat, was found to contain preservative although its presence was not declared, as required under the Preservatives in Food Regulations. The amount of the preservative was within that permitted, however, and legal action was not considered necessary although the attention of the suppliers was drawn to the relevant provisions. The remaining samples were all free from complaint. 3. General In addition to the Food and Drugs Act, the usual attention was given to the provisions of the Labelling of Food Order and the Pharmacy and Medicines Act in respect of their application to the labelling and descriptions of food and drugs.
