Under the 1974 Health and Safety at Work Act, Safety Screens provide and maintain plant systems of work that are practical, safe and without risk to health.

Hygiene Regulations - The Food Safety (General Hygiene) Regulations 1995
Interpretation of Rules of Hygiene, General Requirements for Food Businesses.
'Food business' means any undertaking, carrying out any or all of the following operations, namely, Preparation, processing, manufacturing, packaging, storing, transportation, distribution, handling or offering for sale or supply of food.
Schedule 1, Chapter 2, Paragraph D, States that:
Windows and other openings which can be opened to the outside environment must where necessary be fitted with 'insect and fly proof screens’, which can be easily removed for cleaning. Where open windows would result in contamination of foodstuffs, windows must remain closed and fixed during production.
The upgraded bill has already had an effect on the larger businesses and companies; it would seem appropriate to make recommendations and provisions for the fitting of insect screens as soon as practicable, thus ensuring that your responsibilities under the act are fulfilled.
