With regard to the inspection service in food, supply and price matters, I would like to report that the Food Control Service is organized within the Ministry of Agriculture's department in such a way that the "K" department established by the Bureau of the Ministry acts as an administrative and controlling central body whose enforcement bodies are exposed in each district to carry out controls at municipal offices, factories, agricultural enterprises and shops dealing with the sale or production of products managed by the Ministry for Agriculture. Exposed enforcement bodies are directly subject to the aforementioned "K" department in order to carry out their duties.
