Food Hygiene Ratings
When my business is rated, what will I receive?
When a rating is awarded the food business must be given:
- written notification of their rating;
- a written statement of the reasons for the rating, including where the business has not achieved a 5, details of the action necessary for the business to undertake before a 5 can be awarded;
- an adequate number of rating stickers so that the business can display their rating at all entrances which the public may use to enter the premises; and,
- details on rights of appeal, requesting a re-score, the right to reply (including the cost), and when and how the rating will be published.
