The State Service of Ukraine for Food Safety and Consumer Protection plans to check until September 1, 2017 every food block at Ukrainian schools and kindergartens.

This was reported by the State Service of Ukraine for Food Safety and Consumer Protection.

"For the children's safety, the State Service of Ukraine for Food Safety and Consumer Protection has intensified its activities at all levels in order to inspect every food block at Ukrainian schools and kindergartens by September 1, 2017.
