The protection of meat and the provision of glass fronts
to shops has been a question to which some careful study har
been given, as it is not possible to deal with stalls and shops
on the same lines.
In most cases the owners of butcher shops have readily complied
with the suggestions made for the protection of the meat,
but in the case of stalls, the provision of glass fronts is
impracticable.
Side screens are used and as much protection is called for as
is considered reasonable, due regard being paid to the circumstances
of each individual case.
No application has been received for the stamping of
carcases examined by the Sanitary Inspectors.
Licensed Slaughterhouses .-At the annual licensing of
slaughterhouses in October, I received notices from seven
licensees of their intention to make application to the London
County Council for the renewal of their licences.
In all cases these premises were found to be, as far as your
Council's requirements were concerned, in a satisfactory condition.
No opposition was offered to the renewal of their
licences.
