In October a dairyman who occupied premises in an
adjoining Borough made application to be registered as
a retail purveyor of milk in this Borough. The usual
enquiries were made and in view of the applicant's past
record the Public Health Committee decided that he was
not a suitable person to carry on the trade in Fulham
and his application was accordingly refused.
In order that the risk of contamination of milk
should be minimised the Council passed a resolution on
May 9th, 1923 prohibiting the sale of the following
articles in registered milk shops:—
Paraffin.
Loose pickles.
Vinegar (except in sealed bottles).
Fish.
Meat (of all forms, except when in sealed tins or glass).
Fruit.
Vegetables.
Loose soap.
Coals.
Coke.
Wood (except in bundles not kept in the milk store).
