Part III requires the Local Authority to adopt the
practice of marking the meat which has been inspected at the
time of slaughter, subject to the approval of the Minister of
Health.
Part IV deals with the sale of meat from street stalls.
Part V deals with the sale of meat from shops, stores, etc.
Under Parts IV and V the meat is to be suitably protected
from contamination, especially by street dust and flies; and
sanitary provisions are imposed with reference to the construction
and usage of shops and stores.
Part VI deals, with the transport and handling of meat.

the Stoke Newington Borough Council has not made any arrangements
for the marking of meat (Part III). As there are no street

concerned with the administration of great Meat Markets and the
control of Distributing Agencies. Therefore I deal only with the
action taken under Parts II and V of the Regulations.
