One Prohibition Order was served to Arcross Foods, Blackrock, Louth.
Dr Bernard Hegarty, Director of Service Contracts, FSAI, stated that food businesses cannot put the health of consumers in jeopardy through negligence.
“The legal onus is on food businesses to ensure at all times that the food they serve is safe to eat. This requires ongoing compliance with food safety and hygiene legislation and there is absolutely no excuse for negligent practices," he said. All food businesses must have a food safety management system in place that is consulted and updated on a regular basis, in order to avoid non-compliance issues and breaches of food safety legislation."
