Seven Closure Orders Served On Food Businesses In December - FSAI
A total of seven closure orders were served in food businesses in December 2017, according to the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI).
Three Closure Orders were served under the FSAI Act, 1998 on:
• Ruposhe Indian Restaurant, 1 Whitworth Road, Drumcondra, Dublin 9
• Cartons Daybreak (grocery), Clonhenritt, Camolin, Wexford
• Boojum Food Stall, Blanchardstown Shopping Centre, Blanchardstown, Dublin 15.
Four Closure Orders were served under the EC (Official Control of Foodstuffs) Regulations, 2010 on:
• Tigh Giblin (Closed area: the kitchen and all food preparation and storage areas), Bruach Na Habhainn, Spiddal, Galway
• Rose Garden Chinese Restaurant, 1 Church Street, Douglas, Cork
• Athboy Pizza's (take away), Main Street, Athboy, Meath
• China Town (take away), Main Street, Castlebellingham, Louth.
Dr Pamela Byrne, Chief Executive of the FSAI, said: "While it is very encouraging to see Enforcement Orders drop significantly for 2017 compared with 2016, 69 Enforcement Orders is still too many.
"Unfortunately, there continues to be a minority of food businesses not complying with their legal requirements. Food businesses must recognise that they are legally bound to ensure that the food they serve is safe to eat. Consumers have a right to safe food."
