According to the Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI), the affected businesses are located in Dublin, Kerry, Cork, Limerick and Louth.

The food businesses were issued with closure orders for breaches of food safety legislation, pursuant to the FSAI Act, 1998 and the EC (Official Control of Foodstuffs) Regulations, 2010.

Seven closure orders were served, the following under the FSAI Act, 1998:

  • Tasty Hut, 61 Dorset Street, Dublin 1 (Order served on 2 October, order lifted on 12 October)
