The advent of the Pharmacy and Poisons Act 1933 led to further control of supply of poisons. This Act led to the formation of a Poisons Board, responsible for rule making, local authority lists, inspection and enforcement. This legislation was in force until 1968, when the Medicines Act replaced the medicines component of the Pharmacy and Poisons Act, and 1972, when a new Poisons Act replaced the poisons function of the Pharmacy and Poisons Act 1933.

Althou there were substantial incres es in inspections and subsequent enforcement actions in the sector between 2000 and 2002 (516 inspections leading to 3 prosecutions in 2000, increased to 726 inspections d 28 prosecutions in 2001, 435 inspections and 85 prosecutions in 2002 increased to 314 inspections in 2003) it is not possible to determine how many of these made reference to wood-dust exposure or involved OELs in any way. Given the existence of the general inspection strategy described so fer, and the known reluctance of nmny inspectors to engage with technical a ects of the risk evaluation of the use of h ardous substances, it seems likely that very few inspection and enforcement actions will have done tiiis. However, exposure is likely to be quite high in many cases. 

Once again, there is little specific information avaiMile on the role of OEl in risk assessment or the extent to which the Labour Inspecti ate has included any reference to using them in its inspection and enforcement of the law. As in other sectors, inspection and enforcement increased betwren 2000 and 2002. Inspection visils rose from 1,077 to 1,551 and prosecutions from 29 to 82 in 2001 while in 2002 tiiere were 1082 inspection visits and 199 prosecutions. In 2003 there were 884 infection visits, but it is not possible to ascertain from these figures whether such increase have any significance for inspectorate monitoring of the role of OELs in risk assessment.
