(ii) Milk Supply, Meat and Other Foods.
Particulars of action taken with regard to milk, meat,
and other foods, including inspection of meat, slaughterhouses,
shops, and places where food is prepared are given
in the Report of the Sanitary Inspector, which is included
at the end of the Main Report.
I remarked on the four private slaughterhouses in last
year's Annual Report, particularly drawing attention to the
old wooden building at No. 45 Cambridge Grove Road.
