The Executive considered a report seeking approval of a Food Safety Service Plan for the period 2017 to 2018, which would ensure that the Council was compliant with the requirements of the Food Standards Agency and the Framework Agreement on Local Authority Food Law Enforcement.
It was reported that the number of food businesses in the Borough which were ‘Broadly Compliant’ with food hygiene law remained high at 95.8%. In 2016/17 85 new businesses had been included in the inspections.
In 2017/18, officers intended to build on the success of the Food Hygiene Rating System and to maintain the proportion of food businesses which were “Broadly Compliant” with food hygiene laws to at or above 95%.
RESOLVED that the Food Safety Service Plan 2017/18 attached at Annex A to this report be approved.
