In Section 5, sub (3 the.. expression is used INhere a producer has reason to believes - it'was nece � sa ry t o use this expression because o f the wording in , the Act. Ile have been advised by our solicitor that a producer would have reason to believe that the milk he produces fails to comply with the standards, when he has been so advised by the dairy or inspector. It is anticipated that the industry will recommend that The Milk Industry Act be amended to allow the regulations to deal more . specifically with the rejection of milk. It is felt that this provincial regulation should do much ' to unify our, milk quality in the Province. However, it is re- e ni zed it Is o og my a start and amendments aryl changes will' be necessary from time to time. __.. As you realize,, with the introduction of The Milk Industry_ _ r Y'M -, Act, 195, The Milk arxi Cream Act, 1928 was repealed. With the V tit roduct ion of the attached regulation all municipal by -laws ,... �� dealing with the production, storage and transportation of milk r 'Ei are no lower effective and are re laced by p y provincial regulation. 4 �E [finder Part 1V of the Act., each municipality may appoint an inspector to enforce these milk quality regulations.
