A takeaway premise in Aberystwyth has been closed after it failed to comply with a premises improvement notice.
A closure notice has been served on G-One, North Parade, Aberystwyth by Ceredigion County Council’s Public Protection Officers due to non-compliance with the Health Protection (Coronavirus Restrictions) (No. 4) (Wales) Regulations 2020.
The business was required last month to “provide or require the use of personal protective equipment and face coverings by persons working on the premises”. However, officers witnessed staff failing to wear face coverings on several occasions in breach of the requirements.
Ceredigion County Council’s Public Protection Team will continue to take action against businesses who fail to comply with the coronavirus restrictions. Whilst non-compliant businesses will usually receive advice and guidance, serious or persistent breaches will be dealt with by means of our closure powers, fixed penalty notices or prosecution.
The takeaway must close until 21 December 2020, and the full closure notice can be found on Ceredigion County Council’s website, under Improvement and Closure Notices.
Information for businesses is available on the Council’s website.
Any business who is unsure of their responsibilities is urged to check the Welsh Government website.
Any business that requires further information or guidance can contact the council’s Licensing Team at 01545 570881 or clic@ceredigion.gov.uk
