About the Policy

- Ensure that food sold through mobile food vending vehicles are safe and fit for human consumption;
- Ensure the safe operation of mobile food vending vehicles for staff, patrons, pedestrians and the general public;
- Ensure compliance with the Food Act 2003 with regards to business registration and vehicle fit-out;
