Food Hygiene Rating Scheme
Right to reply
Food business operators will have a 'right to reply' which will be published on the website with the score. This will enable the food business operator to explain subsequent actions taken to rectify non-compliance or mitigation for the circumstances at the time of the inspection, rather than to complain or criticise the scheme or 'inspecting officer'.
A food hygiene rating scheme 'right to reply' form (PDF, 82kb) is available to download. You can post or email your completed form to us.
