(b)that any condition subject to which that consent was given was complied with.

(5) The Department concerned—

(a)may give such directions as appear to that Department to be necessary or expedient for the purpose of preventing the carrying out of commercial operations with respect to any food, food sources or contact materials which that Department believes, on reasonable grounds, to be food, food sources or contact materials to which an emergency control order applies; and

(b)may do anything which appears to that Department to be necessary or expedient for that purpose.

(6) Any person who fails to comply with a direction under this Article shall be guilty of an offence.
