Whilst certain regulations exist regarding the sale and
preparation for sale of food it is obvious that further powers are
necessary for the control of the sale of food, perhaps more
particularly in the case of markets. Such powers should be
sufficient as to prevent the contamination by dust, flies, &c.
Fried-fish Shops. —The fried-fish shops are regularly and
constantly inspected for the purpose of ensuring conformity
with the By-laws made by the London County Council. At the
same time a careful look-out is kept on the condition of the
fish.
Bakehouses. —The 48 bakehouses in use in the Borough
have been regularly inspected during the year. Thirteen
notices were served relating to various defects, 14 being
complied with.
It was not necessary to apply for any summonses against
Bakers whose bakehouses were found not to be in conformity
with the Act, as they readily complied with the requirements
of the notice served.
The following is a list of bakehouses in the Borough:— No. 1 DISTRICT.
