The advent of the Milk and Dairies Regulations in October, 1949, has removed the responsibility for ensuring clean milk production on the farms from the Local Authority to the Ministry of Agriculture and.Fisheries. In addition, tho Food Ministry will, when pasteurisation plant is in sufficient supply, designate specific areas which will then sell only designated milks, which comprise:- (a) Tuberculin Tested; (b) Pasteurised (efficient pasteurisation is a proven safeguard against milk-borne diseases which does not destroy the nutritional value of tho milk oven though the cream line may bo slightly diminished); (c) Sterilised. I look forward to the time when this Borough wi]1 come within the area so designated. Milk Licences. The following licences were granted by this Authority during 1949:- Supplementary Dealer's Licence for Tuberculin Tested milk . 1 Supplementary Dealer’s Licence for Accredited milk ,. 1 Supplementary Dealer’s Licence for Pasteurised milk ... ... i Cowsheds and dairies were periodically inspected.
