Unhygienic Food Businesses: Prohibition Notices

Summary

Adopting the same approach as with improvement notices, a prohibition notice may be issued under the Food Safety Act 1990 and a hygiene prohibition notice may be issued under The Food Safety and Hygiene (England) Regulations 2013. A prohibition notice may prohibit the use of a process or treatment, the use of premises or equipment for the purposes of the business or any other food business of the same class or description or prohibit the use of premises or equipment for the purposes of any food business.
