Inspections were regularly and frequently made throughout the year.
One notice served related to the personal cleanliness of the milker, and during
the year the owners of the several cowsheds provided smocks and suitable washing
accommodation for the men employed in milking.
Milkshops, etc.—The number of premises upon which milk is sold is 200.
The number of applications received was 28. Of these, 3 were refused under the
powers granted by the London County Council (General Powers) Act, 1908, the
premises being unsuitable. Under this Act also 33 names were removed from the
register on account of unsuitability of the premises and for other reasons, e.g.,
discontinuance of sale of milk, etc.
