Cleansing Station
One of the occasional but important duties of a local authority
is to ensure the disinfestation of verminous persons and their clothing.
A Cleansing Station is maintained at Aston Road, S.W.20, and the
equipment consists of two slipper baths with incidental rooms, a
Dodwell and Dunning electric disinfecting chamber for clothing and
a gas water heating unit. The premises are maintained and staffed
by the Health Department. During the year 1969, 16 local residents
and one person from another district received treatment for lice infestation.
A fee of 30s. is payable by outside authorities for persons
sent by them for treatment.

Milk (Special Designation) (Amendment) Regulations, 1965.
Schedule 1 of the Regulations which refers to the special conditions
subject to which licences to use the special designation ' Ultra
Heat Treated' may be granted, was applied to the dairy which processes
this milk. Enquiries were received during the year from other
Councils to whom applications had been made for licences in respect
of the sale of U.H.T. milk, and a number of Health Certificates were
issued to the company concerned for the export of U.H.T. milk.
