Compulsory display of food hygiene ratings on entrance door
Force all food establishments to display their food hygiene ratings on their front door, clearly visible from the outside before entering the premises.
Also force them to undergo more regular food hygiene checks, at their own expense, and bar establishments with unsatisfactory ratings from trading until satisfactory standards are met.
Why is this important?
I have been shocked to discover that many well known UK restaurants and establishments have subpar hygiene ratings and that under current UK law it is not compulsory for them to disclose this.
I strongly believe that premises who do not meet hygiene standards should be making their customers aware of such.
This should be done by displaying their food hygiene score on the entrance door, clearly visible prior to entering.
They should also be forced to cease trading until they bring these standards in line with current UK guidelines.
More stringent and regular checks should be carried out which should be funded by the establishment itself (at least once a quarter).
