Samples of milk sold under special designations are taken at intervals, and are submitted
to bacteriological examination, in order to ascertain if they comply with the standard specified
in the Order. Four such samples were taken during the year and in each case the result of the
examination was satisfactory.
As regards "Certified" Milk and "Grade A (Tuberculin tested)" Milk, in those cases
in which the latter milk is bottled at the farm, a scheme has been devised by the Ministry of
Health, under which the work of sampling is divided between the Local Authorities in whose
area the milk is sold.
Samples of the grades above mentioned are to be taken on receipt of instructions from the
Ministry, and no samples of these Grades were required to be taken in this Borough during the
year.
