Milk (Special Designations) Order, 1936.
This Order made by the Minister of Health on the 18th of April,
under Section 3 of the Milk and Dairies (Amendment) Act of 1922,
came into operation on the 1st of June, and revoked the Orders of
1923 and 1934. It prescribes that the special designations which may
be used in relation to milk are "Tuberculin Tested," "Accredited,"
and " Pasteurised."
Tuberculin-tested Milk.
This grade replaces the present "Certified" and "Grade A
(Tuberculin-tested)" milks, and is the only designation for raw milk
from tuberculin-tested cows. If desired this milk can be pasteurised,
and where this is done it must be sold as "Tuberculin-tested Milk
(Pasteurised)." When tuberculin-tested milk is bottled on the farm
the Order permits it to be described as "Tuberculin-tested Milk
(Certified)."
Accredited Milk.
This designation is used for the milk that is at present termed
"Grade A"—that is, milk from cows which are inspected by a
veterinary surgeon but are not tuberculin-tested. If the milk has been
bottled at the place of production, the words "Farm Bottled" may be
added.
Pasteurised Milk.
As at present, all milk which has been held at a temperature of
145° to 150° F. for thirty minutes will be deemed to be pasteurised.
