A RECORD 13 food outlets were served with closure orders in July, including four food stalls in Dun Laoghaire and one at the Oxegen festival.

The orders were issued by HSE environmental health officers. The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) said that the same problems were consistently appearing at premises which failed to meet food hygiene standards.

“Dirty premises, unhygienic practices and improper storage of food simply will not be tolerated,” said Prof Alan Reilly, FSAI.

Here’s the full list of premises and stalls ordered to stop serving food:

• Hadi Indian take-away, Main Street, Ballaghaderreen, Roscommon
• Cherry Blossom Take Away & Restaurant, Unit 4, Watson & Johnson Centre, Church Road, Greystones, Wicklow
• Punjab Balti food stall, Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin
• A Taste of India food stall, Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin
• Food stall occupied by Keziah Mabunde, Dun Laoghaire, Co. Dublin

• Chinese Fast Food food stall, Main Stage, Arena 2, Oxegen Festival 2010, Punchestown, Naas, Kildare

Outlets are permitted to begin selling and serving food again once inspectors decide they have corrected any issues behind a closure order and are meeting food safety standards.
