The organs or parts of carcases found to be diseased were surrendered
and destroyed. The weight of the meat destroyed was
1 ton 16 cwt. 22 lbs.
The various carcases were found to be in very satisfactory
condition and there was, therefore, no necessity to obtain a Magistrates
Order with regard to the condemnation of any carcase.
With regard to the inspection of meat in Enfield the standard
has been well maintained.
Meat inspection takes up a great deal of the Inspectors'
time and the slaughtering is spread out over the whole week,
Sundays and holidays included and till late hours at night.
