SERVICE DELIVERY
3.4 Home Authority Principle and Primary
Authority Scheme
The Primary Authority Scheme is intended to ensure that a business with multiple outlets can
have the beneot of a single point of contact for advice that supports consistent enforcement
across all of its premises.
Food and Health & Safety
The Food and Safety Team uses the Primary Authority Register to identify if a duty
holder has a Primary Authority partner and will have regard to the inspection plans
and assured advice provided by it in any local interventions.
The Food and Safety Team is not currently a Primary Authority partner to a business
but will consider requests from businesses seeking a Primary Authority.
We act as home authority for all businesses where the relevant decision-making base
of an enterprise is located within East Sufolk9s area.
