And whereas the Secretary of State was of the opinion, as mentioned in section 1(1)(b) of the said Act, that in consequence food which was or might have been in the future in the area described in the Schedule to the Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (Poisonous Substances in Cattle) (Wales) Order 1991(2) or which was derived or might have been in the future derived from cattle in that area was, or might have been, or might have become unsuitable for human consumption;
