In particular, he wishes to determine whether the facts "relate, or not, to a malfunction in the center's supply chain".

Food that was sometimes past its best-before date for a year or more had been distributed to Ukrainian refugees.

Beneficiaries of the city's central social activities fund (CCAS) had also received these products, reports

The town hall of Trégastel had alerted the prefecture after the discovery of the food.
