(b) Meat.
(1) Meat inspection in this district is carried out by
the Sanitary Inspector. All notifications of slaughter are
received by him, and he is present at the time of slaughter
whenever possible.
As most of the slaughtering takes place during different
hours of the day it is impossible to be present always, but
every effort is made to examine all animals after slaughter,
if not at once, during the next few hours.
Very little diseased meat was found during the year
1925, details of which will be found in the Sanitary
Inspector's Report.
All condemned meat and fish is at once taken to the
refuse disposal works and disposed of by burning.
There is no meat marking under the Public Health
(Meat) Regulations, 1924, in this district.
(2) The Public Health (Meat) Regulations; 1924, are
working quite smoothly in this district.
All butchers' shops are fitted with movable glass windows,
which are used at the discretion of the butcher, and
so far the butchers are quite keen on keeping their meat,
&c., free from contamination, and not one has had to be
requested to use the windows or other covering when it
was necessary.
