Meat Regulations, 1924.
Under these regulations, no person may slaughter an animal
for sale for human consumption without first giving notice to the
Council of his intention to do so ; they are also designed to protect
meat from contamination in shops, on stalls and during transit.
All meat vendors are required to be registered by the Council
and at the end of the year the number on the register was 167.
Regular inspections were made, and there were no infringements of
the regulations which justified any legal action being taken.
