FEHD orders Sham Shui Po restaurant to suspend business for 14 days
*******************************************************************
The restaurant is located on the ground floor at 151 Kiu Kiang Street. It was ordered to suspend business from today (July 30) to August 12.
"In April this year, two convictions for the breach were recorded against the food establishment. A total fine of $6,000 was levied by the court and 30 demerit points were registered against the licensee under the department's demerit points system. The contraventions resulted in the 14-day business suspension," a spokesman for the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (FEHD) said.
The licensee of the food premises had a record of two convictions for the same offence in April and June last year. A total fine of $6,600 was levied and 30 demerit points were registered. The breaches led to business suspension for seven days in August last year.
The spokesman reminded licensees of food premises to comply with the FBR, or their licences could be suspended or cancelled.
Licensed food premises are required to exhibit a sign, at a conspicuous place near the main entrance, indicating that the premises have been licensed. A list of licensed food premises is available on the FEHD's website (www.fehd.gov.hk/english/licensing/index.html).
