Food inspection.
There are no licensed slaughterhouses in
Friern Barnet and consequently no post-mortem
inspection of food animals. In common with
other local authorities the Council was required
during the year to consider and, after consultation
with the interests concerned, report to the
Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food as to
the existing and future requirements of the district
in the way of slaughtering facilities. This
report, to the effect that there is no local
demand for slaughtering facilities, was accepted
by the Minister.
