Section 11
of Public Health Milk And Dairies Regulations 1960 Reprinted 1999
Section 11
(1)
No occupier of any building, part of a building or shed shall use it as a milking-house unless —
(a)
those parts of the surface of the floor liable to soiling by cows are impervious and constructed of such material and in such a manner as
5
to render it practicable to remove any liquid matter which may fall thereon and to prevent, as far as is reasonably practicable, the soiling of the cows;
(b)
the floor is so sloped and provided with gutters or channels of some impervious material as to ensure that any liquid matter which falls on the floor, or in the gutters or channels is thereby conveyed to a suitable drain outside the building and thence to a suitable place of disposal, but nothing in this regulation shall be deemed to prohibit the practice of providing for the absorption of such liquid matter into some removable material which is afterwards disposed of outside the building;
(c)
those parts of the surface of any walls liable to soiling or infection by cows are impervious and capable of being readily cleansed.
(2)
This regulation shall apply in the areas specified in the Schedule to these
Regulations.
Conditions of cleansing in places where milk is handled, etc..
