Dealers' (Pasteuriser's) Licence 2
Dealers' (Tuberculin Tested) Licence 2
* Licences issued are valid for a period of 5 years.
Under the Milk (Special Designation) Regulations 1963 there are three
designations of milk "Untreated", "Pasteurised" and "Sterilised".
On and from 1st October, 1964 the special designation "Untreated" for raw
milk replaced the designation "Tuberculin Tested" although until 31st December,
1964 the labelling of "Untreated" milk with the words "Tuberculin Tested" was
optional. Similarly during the same period it was permissable to sell "Pasteurised
Milk" under the alternative description "Tuberculin Tested Milk (Pasteurised)"-
Some difference of opinion on the interpretation of the labelling requirements
in respect of Pasteurised Milk in bottles has arisen. It is hoped that the matter
will be resolved otherwise it may have to be tested in the Courts.
