For example when they have been fined etc.
The public have a right to know if the rats are fresh

We already have this great system in Toronto. It's called DineSafe.
Check it out:

It is usually publicised in the local newspaper, but I think you are right - if they have had a serious violation on their last EHO visit it should be visible.
Obviously, no proprieter is going to display it in flashing lights, so perhaps a public, government run website where you can check would be a good idea? Then the outlet cannot avoid it, or tuck the issue away in a back corner.

While I don't think they should neccessarily have to display signage, I think this information should be available on request, so that discerning diners can make an educated decision.
I don't know the current laws in any country regarding this, so this is just my own opinion on how it should work. It would be good if displaying it became the norm in restaurants, so then if a health inspection sign was MISSING, your suspicions would be aroused.

seems you have had a bad experience
speaking as a resturant manager i certainly wouldn't display that sort of thing but would work hard to avoid getting a bad report.
These reports can also be misleading to the untrained eye!
However if an member of the public asked to see one i dont see any reason to say no if you have nothing to hide
You should also remember that yes they may have had a bad report but they may also have spent thousands on retraing and sorting the problems to bring it up to standard
Should they still ahve to show it?

I think they should have the right to know and make an informed choice on whether or not they would want to eat in a restaurant that had special little friends living in it's kitchens adding their own special ingredients to the menu.

i think of that's an significant factor, I knew of various eating places that had issues, yet till you knew then you definately could have concept the situation replaced into ok. Definately the eating places maybe want a action picture star equipment via wellbeing inspectors to be displayed.

I think most places are required to have that information on hand to be provided if asked. I know some places, like LA are required to post their grade in a highly visible place. I'm not sure how it is for where you live but most places are supposed to freely supply this information.

Yes, that's a very good idea. Quite difficult to monitor though - how are the public to know that its the latest report?

Yes, I think that would be a good idea. Although having said that I think a few restaurants would see a drop in custom, but it would be there own faults

Yes that would be a good idea. Then at least you would know you were eating in a rat free zone.
