DISPOSAL OF CONDEMNED FOOD
There has been no change in the methods of disposing of condemned
and surrendered food noted in the report. At the large
slaughterhouse and bacon factory in the Borough all diseased or
infected carcases, and parts of carcases, are destroyed in special
plant producing inedible material — bone meal, fertiliser, etc. —
under supervision of the Council's Meat Inspectors.
Apart from condemned food material dealt with at these
slaughterhouse premises all surrendered diseased, or unsound, food
is disposed of for animal feeding purposes, or otherwise as appropriate.
