PCC and Food & Drink
Premises should be registered under the Food Premises (Registration) Regulations 1991 if they are used for the sale or supply of food on 5 or more days within a period of five weeks.
Once registered the local environmental health officers will inspect. Even if you are not registered, the basic hygiene principles in the Food Safety (General Food Hygiene) Regulations 1995 apply.
If alcohol is to be sold at a church function, the PCC should obtain permission from the local authority. This includes a raffle, a stall with wine for sale and if wine is included with a supper for which tickets are sold.
