Food Alerts
Food Alerts are issued by the Food Standards Agency to inform
the public, local authorities and the food industry about
potentially dangerous food.
Environmental Health and Trading Standards Departments receive
the warnings and take the appropriate action where necessary. This
may include:
- issuing a local press release;
- mailshoting relevant businesses in the district;
- telephoning or
- visiting businesses to check the product has been withdrawn
from sale.
Further details about the national food alert system and details
