Food and Drugs Act, 1938—Section 34.
During the year 1949 one application was received for the
registration of premises for wholesale dealing in margarine. It was
intended that these premises should be used only in emergency, for
example if a breakdown occurred in transport between the firm's
permanent wholesale factory and their retail shops in the neighbourhood.
Registration under Section 34 of the Food and Drugs Act
was granted by the Local Authority.
