LAHORE, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 30th Nov, 2020 ) :The Punjab Food Authority (PFA) will bear the sampling cost of eatables which are collected for screening test from the market.
PFA Director General Rafaqat Ali Naswana issued these directions on Monday and said that the teams would pay prices when they would collect samples from the market.
According to annual schedule sampling, all eatables are sampled three or four times from the market. Earlier the industry owners used to provide testing samples free of cost voluntarily. Testing samples purchased from markets would be able to provide better results.
