The Mayor and City Council was on Monday briefed on an incident involving a city food shop that was ordered to undergo cleaning, after an inspection by the Food and Hygiene Department revealed substandard conditions.
At the council’s statutory meeting, constituency councillor, Tricia Richards, requested an update on an issue of reported bad conditions at Roti Plus on Sheriff Street.
The Chief Meat and Food Inspector, Onika Alleyne-Blackman, told the council that a report would be submitted on the matter at the next Public Health and Markets committee meeting. However, that response was not sufficient for the council, as that committee has not met for some time. Richards added that the matter is of importance to the council and the public and stated that an update should be given, as persons continuously go to the establishment.
