SECTION G
INSPECTION AND SUPERVISION OF FOOD
FOOD INSPECTION
The amount of food-stuffs surrendered owing to deterioration
or damage is related to the extensive work of food manufacture
and distribution in the Borough.
Under the direction of the various Departments of the Minis4
try of Food, much inferior food material is received into the
Borough for manufacturing purposes subject to control by the
Local Authority, and the Sanitary Inspectors carry out necessary
examinations to ensure that only sound material is used; this
accounts generally for the bulk surrenders.
Two large wholesale grocery Depots are within the Borough,
and hence surrenders of canned and packeted goods are made to
this Authority; these surrenders constitute the major part of such
foodstuff noted.
