The Food Standards Agency is a basic list maintainer. The Inspection and approval of premises is carried out by the Environmental Health Departments of County Councils, Borough Councils, and Local District Councils. With the exception of FSA Scottish office, all that the Food Standards Agency knows about the Approved Processors in their jurisdiction is the name of the company, their approval number and which local health authority is responsible for inspection of each company.

A list of Local Councils is available here www.tagish.co.uk/local/
