The Food Standards Agency does not hold a list of formal action taken against legislative non-compliance of The Food Safety (General Food Hygiene) Regulations 1995. The enforcement of food law is delegated to competent authorities including local authorities. Any data that is collected would be held centrally by each local authority responsible for conducting food hygiene official controls.
