The Council is the Food Safety Authority under the Food Safety Act 1990 and has a duty to enforce safety, food standards and food requirements. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) requires the Council to publish an annual Food Safety Plan, and that such plans have senior management or Member approval.

The report sets out the Council’s annual plan for 2023/24, for the effective enforcement of food safety legislation. The objective of the Plan is to satisfy the FSA that the intended enforcement and inspection regime ensures that food in the Borough is produced and sold under hygienic conditions, is without risk to health, and is of the quality expected by customers.

The Portfolio Holder agreed with the actions and objectives presented in the Plan.
