I pointed out to the occupiers of the Warehouse than an authorised Officer of the
Port Sanitary Authority had the right, under Part II., Articles 7 and 8, of the Public
Health (Imported Food) Regulations, 1925, to enter any premises in the district of
the Port Sanitary Authority at any reasonable time and examine and sample any
foodstuffs therein, and I suggested that they Should withdraw the instructions which
they had given to their Warehouse Keeper not to admit the Food Inspector of the
Port Sanitary Authority, nor to allow him to draw samples from the tea stored in
the Warehouse.
This they declined to do; therefore the matter was reported to Mr. Solicitor,
who, on the 28th May, applied for and obtained a Magistrate's Warrant authorising
the Inspector to enter the Warehouse and search for and examine any article of food
deposited therein.
