Notes in regard to samples shown as adulterated or below standard or
otherwise.
Milk. — It is satisfactory to note that none of the forty-seven samples
of milk was adversely reported upon.
Ice Lollies. — An informal sample was submitted to the public analyst.
It was found to contain 1 part per million of lead which was in excess of
0.2 part per million which is considered a reasonable limit. On further
samples being taken it was found that the moulds had been renewed and
the results were satisfactory.
MILK.
During the year the following licences were issued under
the Milk (Special Designations) (Raw Milk) or the (Special
Designations) (Pasteurised and Sterilised Milk) Regulations,
1949.

The difference between a dealer's and a supplementary licence
is that, if a dairyman has premises in a local government area
where he retails milk he is issued with a dealer's licence. Should
he retail milk in another area he must obtain a supplementary
licence from the Council of that area.
