Report of the Sanitary Committee of the Commissioners of Sewers of the City of London, together with a report of the Medical Officer of Health on the objections raised by the Butchers' Trade Society to the bye-laws proposed for the regulation of slaughter-houses

by W. Sedgwick Saunders; City of London . Commissioners of Sewers. Sanitary Committee

Bye-law XV.

That no Slaughter-house or Pound be used for any purpose other than that for which it is licensed, and that no slaughtering be conducted within public view.

Objection.

The Butchers maintain that the Pound is not included in the Licence for the Slaughter-house.

Reply.

It is quite true that the word Pound is not used in the Licence for a Slaughter-house, but the Act of Parliament, 1874, distinctly provides that the Bye-laws shall extend to the “premises” generally.
