One new factory bakehouse was opened during the year at 126,
West End Lane. The premises were suitably altered so as, in my
opinion, to conform with the requirements of Section 101 (3) of the
Factory and Workshop Act, 1901, which prohibits the establishment
anew of an underground bakehouse.
(v) Registration of Food Premises (other than Dairies).
(a) There are 116 premises on the Register used for the manufacture,
storage or sale of ice-cream.
(b) Cooked Meat, etc.—Up to the end of the year 47 premises
had been registered.
(vi) Agricultural Produce (Grading and Marking) Act, 1928.
The Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries has made Regulations
prescribing designations to indicate the quality of certain articles of
agricultural produce. The Sanitary Inspectors supervise, generally,
such of these Regulations as are enforceable by the Borough Council.
(vii) Merchandise Marks Act, 1926.
Under this Act certain imported goods are required to bear an
indication of origin when exposed for sale. The Sanitary Inspectors
supervise, generally, such of the requirements of these Acts as are
enforceable by the Borough Council.
In March and April leaflets were sent to all shopkeepers likely
to be affected drawing their attention to the importance of the marking
of imported meats and other foodstuffs.
During the year a shopkeeper was ordered by the Council to be
cautioned for exposing for sale a quantity of tomatoes not marked by
means of a show ticket, clearly visible to intending purchasers, bearing
the indication of origin of the tomatoes, in accordance with the
Merchandise Marks (Imported Goods) No. 4 Order, 1929.
Butter Factories and Wholesale Dealers in Margarine.
There is now no butter factory in the Borough.
At the end of the year only two traders were registered as whole
sale dealers in Margarine:—
304, Kilburn High Road—Messrs. Maypole Dairy Co., Ltd.
233, Finchley Road—Messrs. Lipton, Ltd.
