Explanatory note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations revoke Orders made under regulation 2 of the Defence (Sale of Food) Regulations 1943 (SR & O 1943/1553) which prescribed compositional standards for mustard, self-raising flour, curry powder, tomato ketchup, and suet. Those foods were required to comply with the prescribed standards by virtue of article 1 of the Food Standards (General Provisions) Order 1944 (SR & O 1944/42, amended by SR & O 1944/654, S.I. 1982/1727, 1985/67).
These Regulations also revoke the Public Health (Imported Milk) Regulations 1926, which required imported milk to comply with certain hygiene requirements and the Salad Cream Regulations 1966 and the Salad Cream (Scotland) Regulations 1966, which prescribed compositional requirements for salad cream.
Amending instruments to those revoked and references to them in other instruments are also revoked.
