Environmental Health Procedures has been completely updated and the 4th edition contains new procedures resulting from major changes to food control law involving the hygiene and safety of meat products, fishery products and shellfish, milk products and eggs. In some cases these procedures show both existing procedures and those to be implemented in the future. The provisions of the Noise and Statutory Nuisance Act 1993 and the Sunday Trading Act 1994 are incorporated as is the local authority role under the Radioactive Substances Act 1993. The edition also takes account of changes which are likely to result from the Deregulation and Contracting Out Act 1994. The book will continue to provide an essential reference source for student and practising environmental health officers and all thoses who become involved in environmental health issues, particulary lawyers and consultancies. It removes the need to wade through legal encyclopedias and Acts of Parliament in order to check on a point of procedure and also portrays, through flow charts, the format and principals of every legal procedure used in the environment health control system.
