No. 10. With reference to this sample the matter was immediately
reported to the Medical Officer of Health of the producing
area concerned, who caused samples of milk to be taken from the
farm. These proved negative to the animal inoculation test. A
subsequent sample from this producer was taken in this area,
which proved satisfactory.
No. 30. In this case the milk having been produced in this
area the Council's Veterinary Surgeon visited the producer's
premises. The result of the examination revealed one animal
suffering from tuberculosis, which was dealt with under the Tuberculosis
Order, 1925 ( see page 90). Subsequent samples were
taken for animal inoculation, and these proved satisfactory.
