He was fined \u00a3450 with \u00a33,000 costs at Newcastle Magistrates’ Court <\/p>\n
Council cabinet member Irim Ali, who has responsibility for regulation, said: \u201cThe case highlights the need for very strict management of food orders and great care needed when serving food. There is no room for complacency or error.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe public must be confident that businesses are safe and take no risk with their safety. We are committed to supporting businesses with training and help but will hold those to account that put lives at risk.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
