Thus, the building of the state preschool educational organization No. 52 of the Shakhrikhan district is old, the external and internal premises of the dining room require repair, there are no tables, chairs and other equipment. The dining room does not meet sanitary and hygienic requirements, cleaning is not carried out, there are not enough dishes for children.
Also, when studying the created necessary conditions for cooking, high-quality reception and storage of food products, it was found that as a result of the non-acceptance of products by the recycling commission, low-quality food products were supplied to the state preschool educational organization No. 2 of the Kurgantepa district.
In the studied state preschool educational organizations, menus are not compiled on the basis of a Single seasonal 10-day menu, which contradicts paragraph 6 of the Regulation. The compiled menu does not agree with the territorial departments of the Committee for Sanitary and Epidemiological Welfare and Public Health, and an act on making changes to the menu is not drawn up.

At the end of the meeting, the relevant decision of the Committee was made.
