The Slaughter-houses and Cow-sheds have undergone
the usual annual inspection by the Surveyor and
myself. The Slaughter-houses were found to be in a
very satisfactory condition. On the other hand some
of the Cow-sheds were either not rebuilt, or else not
fitted up in accordance with the new regulations, and it
was therefore necessary to oppose the renewal of the
owners' licenses, and they were suspended accordingly
until the necessary alterations, amounting in some instances
to complete rebuilding of the sheds, had been
carried out.
