Resumen

These Regulations lay down rules for the administration, standards, manufacturing, sampling, labelling, packaging, sales, storage, certification of food and drugs. These Regulations, where applicable, prescribe the standards of composition, strength, potency, purity, quality or other property of the article of food, drug, cosmetic or device to which they refer, and approve the advertisement of any food, drug, cosmetic or device only if they are in compliance with the Act and these Regulations. Furthermore, an inspector may be appointed by the Ministry of Health to carry out duties, such as inspecting the premises, and taking samples of imported food. Part II to these Regulations puts emphasis on food safety and provides rules for food additives, artificial sweeteners, sugar, alcoholic beverages, flavourings, food colour, treated food, food preservatives, packaging, storage, and labelling of food and the information to be carried on label, and exceptions to the list of ingredients and label declaration. Moreover, Part II also sets out provisions on the adulteration of food; the prohibition to prepare, pack, store or transport any food intended for sale which is injurious to the health of a consumer; the prohibition on using water other than potable water as an ingredient in the manufacture or preparation of any food; poisonous substances specified in Part III of Second Schedule; and food standards listed in Part IV of Second Schedule.
