And whereas Section 29(3) stipulate that

“the authorities shall maintain a system of control

and other activities appropriate to the circumstances,

including public communication on food safety and risk,

food safety surveillance and other monitoring activities

covering all stages of food business”

And whereas section 30(2)(d) stipulate that

The Commissioner of Food Safety shall perform all

or any of the following functions, namely

(d) Ensure an efficient and uniform implementation

of the standards and other requirements as specified and

also ensure a high standard of objectivity, accountability,

practicability, transparency and credibility.

And whereas Section 26(2)(i) stipulate that

“No

.^{food business operator shall himself or by any}

person on his behalf manufacture, store sell or distribute

any article of food which is unsafe”

And therefore The Commissioner of Food Safety

Act, 2006 hereby prohibit the manufacture, storage,

distribution and sale of any kind of cold food prepared

with the aid of liquid nitrogen, from the date of this order

in the interest of public health.
