The report faults FDA for inaction in the 1960s and criticizes Finch for not permanently banning cyclamates in 1969, noting removal came only last month.

Cyclamate Sales Questioned in Food Additive Law Context
A report questions cyclamate products sold as drugs as a means to circumvent food additive laws that protect against cancer risks in humans and animals. The law reportedly exempts drugs, with Rep. L. H. Fountain faulting the secretary's office for making key cyclamate decisions despite FDA enforcement delegation. President Nixon had appointed Finch as HEW secretary, later moving him to the White House as a special adviser.
