Q: What is the Clean Tables Campaign at public dining places?

The Clean Tables Campaign is launched to remind diners at public dining places to keep the tables clean by clearing their used tissues and wet wipes, disposable crockery, and returning their used crockery and trays after they have finished their meals. Common litter found in public dining places, such as used tissues or wet wipes, can become biohazards as they collect respiratory discharges and sputum, which may contain viruses or bacteria. When left lying around, used tissues or wet wipes pose a health risk. Keeping our tables clean will also help reduce hygiene issues related to birds feeding off uncleared plates, bowls, trays and tables, which have become easy food sources for our urban wildlife. We seek the support from the public to address table litter at our public dining places.
