FOLLOWING A MEETING with Government officials today the Restaurants Association of Ireland has said representatives from the hospitality industry have collectively called for “stronger sanctions including penalties, fines and closures for hospitality businesses flouting the regulations”.
He also stated the enforcement powers of both the HSE and HSA need be used more widely as “only a credible threat of enforcement will bring those flouting the law into line”. However, inspections carried out by HSE and HSA health and safety inspectors found that 75% of premises were compliant over the October bank holiday weekend.
“You would be hoping for self-compliance in this but we’ve always had a concern that there is inadequate enforcement or oversight of this,” she said. “Constructive engagement took place on the range of issues and how these sectors and government can work collectively to improve awareness of the risks and how to manage them, to support the public to follow public health advice and ensure greater compliance with regulations and guidance,” the statement said.
Oh the whole 'industry' is saying that are they? Well that's unquantifiable so f it, just print it. How about let business run their business and the general population can decide individually whether or not to take the tiny risk of C9, generally. It's not that hard.
