MERCHANDISE MARKS ACT. 1926.
Regular and frequent inspections were made during the year
with regard to the labelling and display of appropriate notices,
in compliance with the Orders made under the above Act in
respect of certain foods.
From time to time attention was drawn to infringements,
particularly in respect of tomatoes and apples, but it was not
considered necessary to take any legal enforcement action.
