Food and Drugs Acts.
Places where Food is Prepared.
The 14 coffee and eating houses and other premises where food is
prepared have been specially inspected, and the food-stuff on the premises
examined with satisfactory results.
Unsound Food.
The market places have been regularly inspected. In one instance
only was any article of food exposed for sale at the time of my visits in
such a condition as to justify seizure, viz.:—171bs. beef, 29 faggots and
4 saveloys. A condemnation order was obtained and the meat destroyed.
During the year 1 box of crabs, 1 box of cods' roes, 12 sheeps' livers
and about lcwt. of pieces of beef, mutton and pork were found unfit for
human eonsumption and destroyed.
Factory and Workshop Acts.
The workshops, workplaces and outworkers on the Register have been
visited, and the terms of the Acts relating to them have been required by
notice, where necessary, to be complied with.
No summonses were necessary, as the works were immediately
executed on the service of intimation or notice.
