Paragraph 3 Reheating of food

Food which in the course of a commercial operation has been heated and which is thereafter reheated before being served for immediate consumption or exposed for sale shall, on being reheated, be raised to a temperature of not less than 82°C.

Any person who contravenes the provisions of sub paragraph (1) is guilty of an offence.

In any proceedings for an offence under sub paragraph (2), it shall be a defence for the accused to prove that the food could not have been raised to a temperature of not less than 82°C without a deterioration of its qualities.
