Statement: After a community meal, many residents fell ill and were hospitalized (recurrent incidents in recent months).\nCourses of Action:\nI. Terminate the school/community canteen contract immediately and seek compensation.\nII. Advise all residents/students to stop consuming food from the canteen until cleared.\nIII. Arrest the canteen owner immediately for negligence.

Difficulty: Medium

Correct Answer: Only I and II follow

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
Repeated food-borne illness indicates systemic hygiene failures. Remedies prioritize stopping exposure and enforcing contractual accountability, while due process governs criminal liability.


Given Data / Assumptions:

  • Fourth episode within six months.
  • Link to canteen food is strong.


Concept / Approach:
Terminate and seek damages (I) to protect patrons and create accountability. Issue immediate advisories (II) to halt consumption pending fresh approvals. Immediate arrest (III) without investigation remains improper; proceed only after establishing negligence per statute.


Step-by-Step Solution:
1) Suspend/terminate vendor; deep-clean premises (I).2) Notify public to avoid the food; arrange alternate catering (II).3) Initiate statutory inspection, sampling; prosecute if violations confirmed.


Verification / Alternative check:
Food safety enforcement sequences contract, administrative, and criminal actions.


Why Other Options Are Wrong:
III presumes guilt; “All” inherits this flaw; single-option answers under-address exposure and accountability.


Common Pitfalls:
Resuming services before corrective actions are validated.


Final Answer:
Only I and II follow.
