Under section 5 of Part II of the London County
Council (General Powers) Act, 193.2. "Any premises in
the district of any sanitary authority used or proposed
to be used (ii) for the preparation or manufacture of
sausages or potted pressed pickled or preserved meat,
fish or other food intended for sale, shall be registered
by the owner or occupier or intending occupier thereof
