On 1 March 2016, the Food Act 2014 ("Act") came into force. This put in place a new food safety and registration regime for businesses which are involved in food. Gone is the one size fits all approach to food safety; the higher risk the business presents in relation to food the more obligations it will have and all businesses which have an involvement in food now have obligations under the new Act.
