This Section is much stronger in its effect than Section 16 of the Clean Air Act,
1956, which makes it necessary for the local authority to prove that a nuisance is
being caused to the inhabitants of the neighbourhood, where smoke, other than that
dealt with in other Sections of the Act, is produced.
FOOD HYGIENE
The Clean Food policy of the Ealing Council is a long term one based on regular
inspections of food premises, together with talks to food handlers, school leavers and
women's organisations. This lecture scheme is regarded as of vital importance and is
being pursued with the same energy as during the past 13 years. There is every
indication that these talks are appreciated and that they are showing beneficial results.
During 1962, 43 lectures were given to food handlers and 172 received Certificates
of Attendance upon completing the course. In addition 19 talks on Food Hygiene
were given by the Public Health Inspectors to approximately 760 school-leavers at
the Grammar and Secondary Modern Schools in the Borough, and six lectures were
given to women's organisations.
Since the inception of the Food Hygiene Scheme in 1949, 572 lectures have been
given and 2,482 food traders and food handlers have completed the courses which
have been arranged and all have been supplied with Certificates of Attendance. In
addition there have been 291 talks to school leavers at the Grammar and Secondary
Modern Schools and in the 12 years since this part of the scheme was commenced
approximately 11,400 children have attended. A total of 38 talks has also been given
to various Women's Organisations.
During the year a new plastic and self-adhesive notice has been produced which is
supplied to food traders on request and is suitable for fixing to a shop door or
window. The notice is in the name of the Medical Officer of Health and requests
customers not to bring their dogs into the food shop.
