These factories were visited and inspected when first registered
as regards those matters which are the responsibility of the Borough
Council. They have been further inspected on receipt of complaints
and as far as possible at regular intervals. It has not been
possible to visit each factory every year. The general standard of
Hygiene and compliance with legal requirements was found to be
very good and only occasionally were defects, as set out below,
discovered. In such cases notices were served.
