Four venues have received a zero rating from the FSA, highlighting an urgent need to sort out hygiene and food safety standards at the venues.

A further 59 venues currently have a one rating highlighting a need for major improvement in hygiene and safety.

They encompass the entire district, from the Idle to Ilkley and from Bradford Moor to Baildon.
