FOOD SUPPLY.
Milk.
There are 172 milk shops on the register which have been kept under supervision by your Food Inspector.
The power which the Council possesses under the London County Council General Powers Act, 1908, to remove unsuitable
premises from the register has enabled us to secure better conditions for safeguarding the purity of the milk while stored in the retail shops.
