LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 186, as introduced, Nguyen. Food safety.

Existing law requires the State Department of Public Health, whenever the department finds that a class of food distributed in the state may, by reason of contamination with micro-organisms during manufacture, packing, or storage, be injurious to the health of a man or other animal that consumes it, and that the injurious nature cannot be adequately determined after the food has entered commerce, to adopt regulations providing for the issuance of permits to manufacturers, processors, or packers of the class of food.

This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.
