Milk (Special Designations) Regulations
A person proposing to use a special designation authorised by the Regulations is
required to apply to the licensing authority of the area in which the milk is to be sold,
for a licence to use the designation. Upon being satisfied that the relevant provisions
of the Regulations are complied with, a Licensing Authority grant a dealer's licence to a
distributor in respect of each of his premises within their area from which the designated
milk is to be sold. A licence is issued for a period of five years and permits the sale of
designated milk outside as well as inside the area of the licensing authority.
During the year 3 dealers licences were issued, details of which are as follows:—
To sell Tuberculin Tested milk 2
To sell Pasteurised milk 3
To sell Sterilised milk 2
As from 1st October, 1964, the special designation "Tuberculin Tested" was replaced
by "Untreated", and 13 premises were re-licensed for the new designation.
