FEHD orders Mong Kok siu mei and lo mei shop to suspend business for 14 days
****************************************************************************
The shop, located on the ground floor of 1037 Canton Road, Mong Kok, was ordered to suspend business from today (February 1) to February 14.
"In last September and November, two convictions for the above-mentioned breach were recorded against the shop. A total fine of $4,100 was levied by the court and 15 demerit points were registered against the licensee under the department's demerit points system. The contraventions resulted in the 14-day licence suspension," a spokesman for the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (FEHD) said.
The licensee of the shop had a record of two convictions for the same offence last March and July. A total fine of $4,500 was levied and 15 demerit points were also registered. The breaches led to a licence suspension for seven days last September.
The spokesman reminded the licensees of food premises to comply with the FBR, or their licences could be suspended or cancelled.
Licensed food premises are required to exhibit a sign, at a conspicuous place near the main entrance, indicating that the premises have been licensed. A list of licensed food premises is available on the FEHD's website (www.fehd.gov.hk/english/licensing/index.html).
