    • (a) the person shall change the records to show that all of the product or animal food is prohibited material and any label on any packaging or container containing the product or animal food shall be marked conspicuously, legibly and indelibly with a statement approved by the Minister that indicates that the product or animal food shall not be fed to ruminants;

    • (b) all of the product or animal food shall be considered to be prohibited material for the purposes of section 164; and
