Local supermarkets facing fines if pets are not banned from shops

Local supermarkets facing fines if pets are not banned from shops

The health authorities have clamped down on supermarkets, saying that pet owners will no longer be able to bring their furry companions with them whilst food shopping to ensure safety and hygiene. 

Health authorities have warned that such practice is illegal and it is expected to raise massive backlash from customers who are accustomed to be accompanied by their pets.

Many supermarkets received surprise visits last week and were informed that pets were no longer allowed in accordance with the Food Safety Act of 2004. This ‘prevents domestic animals from having access to places where food is prepared, handled and stored.’ 

Many supermarkets allowed pets to be carried in specific trolleys, in customer’s arms or handbags, in their own carriers or short leashes. Big dogs were the the only excluded pets on many premises. 

Speaking with Times of Malta, Pama and Pavi deputy CEO Malcolm Camilleri said that his supermarkets have dedicated trolleys for pets and said he now expects complaints for this new policy. 

He even revealed that he explained the position to the authorities, insisting that pets were never left unattended. Still, the shops face fines if they do not abide by regulations, and warned that restaurants would be next. This, he highlighted, contradicts a law allowing pets in public places.

Pisani gave parents 8 principles upon which parents must be ready to engage in a conflict with their children over. These principles ranged everything from spending more time in nature and reading, to being kind with others and thinking critically.

The BodyForge Human Performance Institute coach emphasised the importance of such principles. He said that mobile phones and screens, which he described as quasi-demonic, entered our homes and ruined fruitful conversations at the dinner table and having a will to work and grow. 

‘There is no instruction manual to being a good parent’ said Pisani. ‘One needs to be very attentive to do the best one can do in raising kids.’ He said that no matter what one does, arguments are inevitable and that if they are to happen, they should at least happen over the management of values and principles.

The truck appears to speed past the moving vehicle, pushing it against that pavement and were it not for the driver hitting the breaks, the incident would have been much worse.

“He should be taken off the roads as he is clearly not fit to be taking on the responsibility of driving such a large vehicle. He is a hazard on the road,” she said in the post.

What do you make of this?
