The Singapore Food Agency (SFA) has suspended the licence of the Korean Delights food stall in the North Spine Koufu foodcourt at the Nanyang Technological University.

The period of suspension is two weeks from Sept 10 to 23.

The licensee has accumulated 12 demerit points within a 12-month period and was fined a total of $800 for selling food that contained "matter foreign to the nature of such food" and failing to keep its premises free of infestation.

Based on track records, a licensee who accumulates 12 or more demerit points during a 12-month period may have his licence suspended for a period of either two or four weeks or cancelled.

All food handlers working in the suspended premises would also be required to re-attend and pass the WSQ Food Safety Course Level 1, before they can resume work as food handlers.

The licensee is also required to ensure that all food hygiene officers working in the suspended premises, if any, re-attend and pass the Workforce Skills Qualifications Food Safety Course Level 3.

SFA also advises members of the public who come across poor food safety practices in food establishments not to patronise such outlets and provide feedback via the online feedback form at www.sfa.gov.sg/feedback or to call SFA Contact Centre at 6805-2871 with details for our follow-up investigations.
