Vol. 336 No. 1

Written Answers. - Sale of Dangerous Sweets.

955.

asked the Minister for Health if any action can be taken to prevent or discourage the sale of dangerous sweets known as "gullies" or "golfballs" in view of the fact that two children died recently as a result of choking on these types of sweets.

I am pursuing this matter with the trade and other relevant interests and I have also asked the Health Education Bureau to take account of this kind of danger in relation to their programme for accident prevention in childhood and adolescence.
