Food closures Ireland: Dublin business operating from Tallaght estate closed over safety fears

One Dublin food business operating out of a southside estate was forced to close by the Food Safety Authority in March.

The premises was shut last month due to food safety concerns according to the Closure Orders information on the FSAI's website. 

Céile Homemade Catering with an address of 4 Deerpark Drive in Kiltipper was served with the order on March 9 which still hasn't been lifted according to the website.

In total, two food businesses were forced to shut in March all around Ireland with the other based in nearby Meath.

The reasons why each business was forced to close is still unknown with the details not expected to be available for around another week.

You can find more information on the FSAI website.

The news comes as the Taoiseach provided some small hope to the restaurant sector ahead of a continued lockdown for hospitality.

He said: "Towards the end of April, we will examine the situation and in the month of May, we will look at a phased reopening of non-essential retail, personal services, all non-contact sports training, religious services, museums, galleries and libraries, and additional freedoms for those who are fully vaccinated.

"Towards the end of May, and depending on progress, we will look at the reopening of hotels, B&Bs and guesthouses in the month of June."

With the majority of hotels also providing restaurant facilities, it remains unclear if the potential reopening of hotels will be done purely to provide accommodation, or if they can also provide food and drinks for guests in the restaurant.
