(a) Definitions and standards of identity, quality and fill of container and their amendments, now or hereafter adopted under authority of the Federal Act are the definitions and standards of identity, quality and fill of container in this Territory. However, when in his judgment such action will promote honesty and fair dealing in the interest of consumers, the Director may promulgate regulations establishing definitions and standards of identity, quality and fill of container for foods where no Federal regulations exist. In addition, the Director may promulgate amendments to any Federal or local regulations which set definitions and standards of identity, and may promulgate amendments to any Federal or local regulations which set standards of quality and fill of container for foods.
(b) Temporary permits now or hereafter granted for import of experimental packs of food varying from the requirements of Federal defini- tions and standards of identity are automatically effective in this Territory under the conditions provided in such permits. In addition, the Director may issue additional permits where they are necessary to the completion of conclusiveness of an otherwise adequate investigation and where the interests of consumers are safeguarded. Such permits are subject to the terms and conditions the Director may prescribe by regulation.
