This is an area summary, not a rating for one premises. Improvement means a result that needs improvement; it is not improvement over time. The file date is not the date of every inspection. Find a premises rating at the Food Standards Agency.

Needs improvement means FHRS ratings at 0, 1 or 2, or an FHIS Improvement Required result. Waiting and exempt results do not enter that share.

Median age of the known rating dates: 460 days. Older than two years: 24.8% (95% interval 23.7% to 25.9%), from 6,279 ratings.

North Yorkshire restaurants: 3.0% (95% interval 2.2% to 4.0%), from 1,697 ratings
North Yorkshire takeaways: 4.6% (95% interval 3.0% to 7.0%), from 453 ratings

What to do next

Part of what this page would normally show is missing from the accepted file: either the rating dates needed for an age figure, or the three component scores needed for a mix, or the second snapshot needed for a 30-day change. The figures that are present stand on their own denominators. The missing part is absent, not zero.

Limits of these figures

Known results: 6,279 ratings; needing improvement: 122 ratings; waiting or unknown: 567 records; exempt: 277 premises. Waiting and exempt records are outside the known results.

Rating dates missing from 0 ratings. The median and age share use 6,279 ratings with known dates.

Low ratings with complete component scores: 122 ratings. Low ratings excluded because a score is missing: 0 ratings. Published ratings are not reconstructed from their components.

Unknown-result scenarios: 1.7% to 10.1% if every waiting or unknown result became known. These are scenario bounds, not confidence intervals. Exempt premises remain excluded.

Comparison covers 6,279 ratings; excludes 0 ratings without an adequate same-type base. The base uses other premises in England under the same scheme.

No 30-day change is published: two accepted files exactly 30 days apart are required. One snapshot cannot show how many premises improved or worsened.

Inspections are not a random sample. These intervals describe the known-result shares, not the chance that a particular premises is safe.

It does not tell you about one premises. A share describes the known ratings in an area on the day of the file, and a single rating can change the day after.

It does not count premises waiting for a rating, and it does not count exempt premises. Both stay outside the denominator, so a low share is not evidence that everything was inspected.

It does not say an inspection is overdue. The age of a rating is the gap since the last published inspection, and the publisher sets no deadline we could measure against.

It does not rank areas. Where two intervals overlap, the order of the two numbers carries no information.

It does not combine schemes. A Scottish pass result and a 0 to 5 score are different measurements and are never averaged.
