A new Tattooing and body piercing guidance toolkit has been launched. This new guidance will provide local authorities and businesses with information on good standards of practice, and promote safety and consistency across the industry nationally.
This week at theEHP we report on the horsemeat incident review, Local Housing Allowance market and lots of prosecutions.
FSA has reported that approximately 70 people in south east England have reported symptoms consistent with diarrhetic shellfish poisoning. The cases have been linked to the consumption of mussels originating from a particular harvesting area in Shetland, Scotland.
The Scottish Government has published its review of the lessons to be learned from the horsemeat incident.
According to the latest research* from the National Landlords Association (NLA), the number of landlords letting to tenants in receipt of local housing allowance (LHA) has fallen to 27 per cent, a seven per cent reduction since quarter one this year.
Following detection by the FSA of unusually high levels of toxins, various shellfish harvesting sites in Scotland have been closed. These toxins, which occur naturally, especially during the summer months, can cause acute food poisoning.
