SEIZURE Of UNWHOLESOME FOOD.
No articles of food were found to be in such a state
as to be unfit for the food of man so as to justify seizure
under 54 and 55 Vic., chap. 76, sec. 47. The heavy penalties
obtained some years ago have no doubt had a salutary
effect in preventing food being offered for sale in such a
state as to justify seizure.
SANITARY NOTICES AND ADMINISTRATION.
During last year 3,188 notices were reported as
having been served by your Sanitary Inspectors, having
for their object the removal or prevention of nuisances or
insanitary conditions, against 3,119 in the previous year,
and during last year 3,281 notices were reported as having
been complied with, against 3,216 in the previous year
The wise course adopted by your Vestry in appointing a
House-to-House Inspector has been continued during the
year. This Inspector reports that during the year he has
inspected 3,404 houses and other premises in the parish.
Altogether, since his appointment on January 20th, 1893,
he has inspected 17,338 inhabited houses and other
premises. The defects in premises discovered as the
result of his inspection were as usual dealt with by the
four District Sanitary Inspectors.
