MILK SUPPLY.
Registration. It is not lawful for any person to carry on
in the district the trade of a cowkeeper, dairyman, or purveyor
of milk, unless he is registered as such with the local authority.
The Council is obliged to keep a register of all such persons,
differentiating between producers, wholesalers, and retailers,
and is empowered to refuse registration and remove from
the register the name of any person who is carrying on such
trade upon any premises which, in the opinion of the local
authority, are unsuitable for the sale of milk. There is a
right of appeal of any aggrieved person to a Court of Summary
Jurisdiction. During the year 8 persons made application
for registration as purveyors of milk; 7 were registered and
consideration of the other one was pending at the end of the
year. Four persons were removed from the registers on the
grounds that they had ceased to carry on the business of a
purveyor of milk. A summary is given below of the alterations
which took place in the registers during the year:—

The premises on the retail register are detailed in tabular
form below.
