What is the new food hygiene legislation that has come in January 2006?
New food hygiene laws will apply in the UK from 1 January 2006, one of which is called The Food Hygiene (England) Regulations 2005. They will affect all food businesses, including caterers, primary producers (such as farmers), manufacturers, distributors and retailers. How the legislation affects you will depend on the size and type of your business. Officers will continue to visit your premises at regular intervals and take proportionate action to ensure any significant breaches identified are put right.
