The poultry industry must "take responsibility" for tackling the UK's most common source of food poisoning, the chief executive of the Food Standards Agency (FSA) has said.
A BBC investigation has revealed cases of campylobacter are increasing, with about 500,000 people a year infected.
FSA figures suggest between 60% and 80% of cases can be attributed to chicken.
The British Poultry Council said it was doing everything it could to reduce the risk of infection.
