a

the use for the purposes of the business of any process or treatment;

b

the construction of any premises used for the purposes of the business, or the use for those purposes of any equipment; and

b

in the case of an order made under paragraph (4), on the giving by the court of a direction to that effect.

7

within 6 months of the making of the hygiene prohibition order; or
