In addition to the regular times fixed by certain butchers
when slaughtering is to be carried out, 530 individual notifications
of intention to slaughter were received.
As in former years, it has on many occasions proved
somewhat difficult to arrange for the inspection of the carcases
and organs of the animals slaughtered owing to the
uncertain times when slaughtering takes place and the
delivery after office hours of notices of intention to slaughter.
With very few exceptions, however, the necessary inspections
have been made.
Five certificates were issued to butchers at their request,
certifying that certain meat had been inspected and found
to be unfit for the food of man and destroyed.
