Act For Disposal
Of Dead Animals
Is Now In Effect
Ontario's Dead Animal Disposal
Act, passed at the last session of
the Legislature, is now in effect
throughout the Province.
The legislation is designed to
control the spread of disease that
might affect the livestock popu-
lation of the Province and at the
same time ensure against the re-
mote possibility that meat from
such animals might be used for hu-
man consumption.
Under the provisions of the le-
gislation all persons engaged in
the handling of dead animals must
obtain a licence from the Live
Stock Commissioner. This require-
ment includes collectors of such
animals, operators, of receiving
plants and the operators of rend-
ering plants.
"Before any licences will be is-
sused to collectors, the vehicles
used in transporting dead. animals
must be inspected and approved,"
said. WI P. Watson, Live Stock
Commissioner. "The body of the
vehicle must be of a construction
which will prevent the seepage of
liquids from the dead animals to
the ground over which the vehicle
passes."
The legislation provides that re-
ceiving and rendering plants must
be constructed so as to facilitate
the task of maintaining them in a
clean, sanitary condition. Opera-
tors are required to. provide facili-
ties for the cleansing and disin-
fecting of trucks. Trucks used in
delivering dead animals must be
disinfected before leaving the
plant to which they were delivered.
"The legislation is not only de-
signed to control the spread of di-
seases but it also makes doubly
sure that the meat from such ani-
mals cannot be used for human
consumption," said Hon. W. A.
Goodfellow, Minister of Agricul-
ture.
