One hundred fifty kilogrammes of fish unfit for human consumption has been destroyed by health control section at Al Khor & Al Dakhira municipalities.
Inspectors also continued inspection raids on commercial complexes to check temperature of refrigerators and the ways they were storing food. Inspectors also have posted hotline number for the consumers to call in case of any inquiry or complaint.
The campaign aims at increasing health safety level among these institutions due to the high demand in Ramadan and to be sure they are complying with health regulations and technical specifications. They also gave tips to supermarkets that food should be kept away from any source of pollution and ensure that it was well-covered during its display.
The campaign came in the framework of “Your Health is our Goal” campaign which conducted by the municipality and focused on food outlets specially supermarkets.
