How we can help
Please let us know if you believe a food business is dirty or has made you ill, and we will investigate.
We will also investigate unsanitary properties such as:
- smelly compost heap that attracts flies and rats to an area
- rubbish which is not put out for collection
- shellfish, including kina, left on the ground to rot rather than being buried.
Thank you for providing feedback.
