According to arrangements with the Surveyor's Department I have
been present on most of the work on new buildings when drains have
been under test. The drainage of many premises has also been repaired
and made sound.
Coffee and Eating Houses.
These have been regularly inspected during the year, new shops have
been placed on the register and in 2 instances old ones taken off. There
are now 31 in the district.
While inspecting these premises, attention as far as possible has been
paid to the food about the place and ready to be cooked or in preparation.
They have been kept clean, and no complaints have been received
respecting same.
Food Inspection at Wharf, etc.
Aberdeen wharf, where food and skins are landed for transit, has
been regularly visited, nothing being found to complain of.
