FOOD AND DRUGS (ADULTERATION) ACT, 1928
46 samples were purchased by the Sanitary Inspector during
the year under this Act, and submitted to analysis. All the samples
were genuine.
168 samples were taken in the Borough by the Kent County
Inspector, and all of these were " genuine," except one sample of
new milk which was reported to be " inferior." The deficiency was
not sufficient to warrant the institution of legal proceedings.
