AdminHistoryThe Markets Sub-Committee was formed prior to 1921. The sub-committee met frequently in 1921, but after that very infrequently, with gaps of between two and three years between meetings where any constructive business has been enacted. In 1921, its function encompassed weights and measures, changes to the structure and buildings within the markets, diseased or unfit food and animals within the markets, staff wages and tolls. After 1921, it discussed specific issues, mainly to do with animal diseases, such as cattle importation from Canada and foot and mouth disease.
