![SECTION E. INSPECTION AND SUPERVISION OF FOOD MEAT. The three licensed slaughterhouses continued in use in varying degree until July, when a renewal of one licence was not applied for and therefore lapsed. The Meat Inspection Regulations 1963 came into force on October 1st. and the detailed inspection then required, coupled with a further increase in the number of animals slaughtered, has materially further increased the time taken in meat inspection, and necessitating a considerable amount of this work being done outside normal working hours. Reciprocal arrangements for meat inspection under Sec, 3 of the Regulation have been agreed with the Ludlow Rural District Council and the ready co-operation of their Meat Inspectors is much appreciated The slaughterhouses have been well maintained with proper compliance with the Regulations and the arrangements made for the collection of hides, inedible offal, etc., and for the disposal of condemned meat, continue to be satisfactory.
