What are the limitations of the scheme?
The results of food hygiene inspections carried out from 1st January 2008 are displayed. Food premises are inspected at intervals ranging from 6 months for the highest risk premises to 36 months for the lowest risk premises. As the publication scheme is new, it will be some time before all food premises are detailed. If you cannot find the premises you are searching for, this does not mean that it has not been inspected but more likely that it was last inspected before January 2008 with the next inspection not being due until a future date.
