Where ice cream sold in the Borough is made at premises outside Holborn, it
is our practice to ask for information as to the conditions of manufacture from the
Medical Officer of Health of the area concerned. On the other hand, we receive a
number of such enquiries from other districts respecting ice cream made in
Holborn and sold in other districts.
Public Health (Meat) Regulations, 1924.
These Regulations came into operation on the 1st April, 1925; they deal with
slaughter-houses, meat marking, the handling of meat in wholesale markets,
conditions of transport, the protection of meat in butehes and other shops and
On stalls from contamination by llios, mud and other submtsance.

All the butchers' shops and meat stalls in the Borough are regularly inspected
to ensure compliance with the Regulations; during the year 702 such inspections
were made.
