| † Special conditions laid down. | ||
Sanitarily, these 24 Slaughter-houses are in good condition,
and the chemical test, which was applied to the drains
in each case, failed to give a result. Inspection of the
Slaughter-houses within the Borough is now carried out by
the officers of the Borough Council, who are responsible for
the due enforcement of all Bye-laws and Regulations made
in pursuance of the Slaughter-houses, etc. (Metropolis) Act,
1874, and the Local Government Act, 1888—an important
duty, which was formerly carried out by the officers of the
London County Council. During 1908, minor sanitary defects
have been found as follows:-defective paving (1), and
dirty premises (3).
One slaughter-house has changed hands during 1908, viz:
1 Lansdowne Road, Clapham Road, which is now licensed to
Sydney Beaumont Wheeler, Manager for Mrs. Minnie Mary
Copeman, the widow of the former licensee (Walter George
Copeman).
