A tamper-evident closure (20) is provided with a base (24) for attachment to a container, and the base (24) defines a discharge aperture (40). A lid (50) is movable between a closed position and an open position with respect to the discharge aperture (40). A manually releasable latch (70, 86) holds the lid closed on the base (24). A tamper-indicating element (54) is mounted adjacent the latch (70, 86). In one form of the invention, the element (54) has a removable part defining a tool (109). According to another aspect of the invention, the removable part of the element (54) is broken away when the latch (70, 86) is operated. In yet another form of the invention, the element (54) prevents operation of the latch (70, 86) until the removable part of the element (54) is first removed.
