Q: Can a business continue to trade with a low rating?
Official GuidanceYes, a low rating doesn't always mean a business is an immediate risk to health. If the inspector finds an imminent risk to public health, they have the power to close the premises until it is safe.
Q: How can I report a hygiene concern in this area?
