Under this Act prevents the sales of an food which is not fit for consumption. The basic logic of the Act is that all food products must be accurately labeled with the ingredients contained in the food.

It is illegal to sell any food which is unfit for consumption. The Act allows for environmental health officers to close down any premises which sell unfit food products.

The Act had been amended by various food hygiene laws which maintain how food products are prepared in restaurants and pubs, but the underlying legality of the Act remains.
