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 14 years. There is every indication
that these talks are appreciated and that they are showing beneficial results.
During 1963 lectures were given to food handlers and 145 received Certificates
of Attendance upon completing the course. In addition 17 talks on food hygiene
were given by the Public Health Inspectors to approximately 680 school-leavers at
the Grammar and Secondary Modern Schools in the Borough, and 19 lectures were
given to women's organisations.
Since the inception of the Food Hygiene Scheme in 1949, 597 lectures have been
given and 2,627 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 308 talks to school leavers at the Grammar and Secondary
Modern Schools and in the 13 years since this part of the scheme was commenced
approximately 12,090 children have attended. A total of 57 talks have also been given
to various women's organisations.
