liver puree, iced lollies, cheese spreads, tinned fruit and vegetables.
Special Designated Milk
"During the year in question one licence was issued by my

premises were inspected regularly and compliance with the
requirements of the Act or Regulations was maintained. Fifty-seven

were procured within the Borough and submitted to test for the
presence of tubercle bacilli. None was found contaminated".
