Slaughter-houses.
On the 3rd of October, a list of persons who had
given notice of their intention to occupy certain
premises as slaughter-houses was submitted to the
Sanitary Committee. It having appeared that the
premises No. 129 Praed Street, were unfit for the
purpose, on the grounds stated in the Report
presented thereon, the Committee recommended
the Vestry to shew cause against the grant of a
licence. This recommendation was agreed to by
the Vestry at their next meeting, and it was resolved
that the licensing Magistrate should be furnished
with a copy of the Medical Officer's Report, stating
the grounds of objection. The licence was accordingly
refused.
I have the honour to be,
Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
J. B. SANDERSON.
