Six companies temporarily closed over hygiene breaches

Six businesses were temporarily closed by the Food Safety Authority last month for breaching hygiene regulations.

The premises in question were the Shanghai Chinese restaurant in Skibbereen, Co Cork; the Tian Tian fish market on Dublin's Moore Street; Goslin's pub in Gorey, Co Wexford; Lam's Chinese take-away in Loughrea, Co Galway; and two catering firms working at the Earl of Kildare Hotel in Dublin.

All six companies were served with closure orders after their hygiene standards were deemed to pose a risk to public health.
