The supply directorate says 14 further reports were filed because staff at food and retail premises held no health certificates, and that daily inspections continue across the governorate's cities.

Inspectors from the Red Sea supply directorate have filed 31 violation reports against markets and shops in the governorate, the directorate says.

Seventeen of the reports were for failing to display the prices of goods clearly for customers, and 14 for staff at food and commercial premises working without health certificates. The directorate did not say which towns or which days the inspections covered.

Shazly Ayesh, who heads the directorate, said the daily inspection rounds will continue in the governorate's cities and that legal steps are being taken against those cited. The directorate counts both failings as breaches of the legal and health rules that traders work under.
