No difficulty has been met with in inspecting any of these
premises, and every assistance has always been given by the
occupiers.
A full statement of the unsound meat surrendered and
destroyed during the year is set out in the Sanitary Inspector's
Report.
The following diseased or unsound food was condemned
and destroyed:-
1 Carcase of Sheep.
1 Carcase of Pig (Tuberculosis).
3 Pigs’ Plucks.
6 Sheep's Livers.
Bakehouses.
All the Bakehouses (20 in number) were inspected frequently
during the year. There are at present in the district
2 underground bakehouses. After certain structura.1
alterations had been made these were certified by the Sanitary
Authority at the commencement of 1904 as suitable in regard
to construction, lighting, ventilation, and all other respects.
The minimum requirements of the Council's certificate included
provisions against the entry of ground air and moisture
and for ventilation, lighting and cleanliness of the premises.
The condition of some of these premises is not all that
could be desired. Every effort is made to ensure the sanitary
condition of bakehouses, etc., but I am convinced that what
is really needed is power to make Byelaws to regulate all the
conditions of the bakery business in so far as they affect the
wholesomeness of the bread.
Ice Cream Premises.
There are 37 persons registered as ice-cream vendors in
this district.
These premises are kept under careful supervision,
especially during the summer months. The County Council
of Middlesex (General Powers), Act, 1906, contains provisions
applicable to these premises.
