Costers and Food Stalls.—Careful supervision has
been given during the year in order to deal with the
many unsatisfactory places where costers have been
found to keep food, especially fruit, prior to its sale
on their barrows or stalls. I caused the sanitary
inspectors to prepare a list of all the costers in the
Borough, giving the places where they sold their goods
and also the places where they kept them prior to sale.
All these places were subsequently inspected and in
many cases alterations and improvements were effected.
Cream (Milk and Cream Regulations,
1912 and 1917).
15 samples of cream and 18 samples of preserved
cream were purchased for analysis.
The following particulars of proceedings taken in
1925 under the above regulations, made in pursuance
of the Public Health (Regulations of Food) Act, 1907,
are given in the form suggested by the late Local
Government Board in their circular letter of October
27th, 1913
