About This Book

The report records the Sanitary Committee's and Medical Officer of Health's consideration of objections by the Butchers' Trade Society to newly proposed slaughter‑house bye‑laws, reviewing premises and practices in a dense Aldgate cluster of slaughter‑houses. It recommends adoption of the bye‑laws with minor amendments—reducing roof lime‑washing frequency in winter and omitting the word unsound while requiring prompt slaughter of disabled animals—and presents detailed sanitary observations about cramped, poorly ventilated shops, cattle driven across footways, nuisance to the public, and operational hazards, forwarding the Medical Officer's findings to the Local Government Board for confirmation.
