170 Report of the Medical Officer of Health.
Special attention has again been given this year to the enforcing
of the Milkshop Regulations, and the notice of all registered
purveyors of milk was called to the regulations which deal with
the protection of milk against infection or contamination.
Very important and necessary powers have been given to
Sanitary Authorities by the London County Council (General
Powers) Act, 1908, Section 5, to remove from or refuse to enter on
the Register the name of persons carrying on the trade of cowkeepers
or dairymen or purveyors of milk upon premises which
are, in the opinion of such Sanitary Authority, for any reason unsuitable
for the sale of milk therein.
During the present year a special inspection will be made of
all these premises and a special report made on the subject.
