Fried Fish Shops.
Fish frying is one of the scheduled offensive trades in the
district. At the beginning of the year there were 28 such premises
in the area. During the year one business was sanctioned, and
another sanctioned in 1937 commenced business, making a total at
the end of the year of 30. Three applications for fresh establishments
were refused.
To these 108 visits were paid. Most of the businesses are
carried on in up-to-date premises with modern appliances. The
premises are kept clean, and the few complaints received were
promptly attended to.
