Manufacture, storage and sale of Ice Cream
Ninety-four registrations of premises were in force at the beginning
of the year, and a further six were added during the year.
An application to store and sell ice cream was made by the proprietor
of a shop selling groceries, provisions and greengrocery. The
Public Health Committee decided that in this case registration should
be granted provided the sale of vegetables ceased. The shopkeeper
was interviewed and after due consideration he decided to continue
with the sale of greengrocery and withdrew his application.
Sixty-seven visits to premises were made during the year in addition
to seventeen visits for the purpose of obtaining ice-cream samples.
