Cheah says Bar Council will encourage the government to review or revise the existing legislation regulating food, drugs and cosmetic products. – Adib Rawi Yahya/theSunThe Bar Council will study the Health Ministry’s approval procedures for the import of food products, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and medicine to ascertain if they are “inadequate at preventing harm to the public”.
“Hence, our study will serve to determine if revisions should be made to existing product safety legislation and approval procedures. We will also consult with industry professionals and make recommendations to MOH and the government accordingly. Zaliha also said: “Sample analysis is conducted after products have been registered or notified under the Post-Marketing Surveillance programme. However, sampling may be conducted by an authorised officer and sent to an approved laboratory for testing if necessary.”
“However, the liability and penalties for products which contain injurious substances or are unsafe are generally borne by the party which manufactures, sells or imports the offending product rather than MOH.”
