Whereas the Secretary of State was of the opinion, as mentioned in section 1(1)(a) of the Food and Environment Protection Act 1985(1), that there had been or might have been an escape of substances of such descriptions and in such quantities and such circumstances as were likely to create a hazard to human health through human consumption of food;

And whereas the Secretary of State was of the opinion, as mentioned in section 1(1)(b) of the said Act, that in consequence of the said escape of substances food which was or might have been in the future in the areas described in the Schedule to the Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (Contamination of Feeding Stuff) (Wales) Order 1990(2), or which was derived or might have been in the future derived from anything in those areas, was, or might have been, or might have become, unsuitable for human consumption;

And whereas the Secretary of State is now of the opinion that such food is not, or is no longer, unsuitable for human consumption in consequence of the said escape of substances;
