14. Whenever in the opinion of the Council it is expedient for its maintenance or preservation to close any part of any slaughter-house, a notice to that effect shall be posted in some conspicuous part of such slaughter-house specifying the part that is to close, and no unauthorized person shall thereafter use or enter such part until a further notice has been published and posted as aforesaid notifying the reopening of such part.

15. No person shall bring into any slaughter-house any animal which is not intended for slaughter and particularly shall not bring any dog into a slaughter-house.

16. No person shall convey or cause to be conveyed or attempt to convey any dead animal into any slaughter-house for any purpose whatever.

17. Every person desiring to bring an animal into a slaughter-house shall apply to the officer in charge to inspect and pass such animal, and no person shall bring or cause to be brought or attempt to bring into a slaughter-house any animal which has not been duly inspected and passed by the officer in charge.

18. The mark known as the Broad Arrow shall be used for the purpose of denoting the fitness of cattle to be slaughtered for human food. No cattle shall be slaughtered for human food in any slaughter-house unless marked with the broad arrow. Every person who, without lawful authority stamps, uses, applies or impresses the broad arrow, or any mark apparently intended to resemble the broad arrow, on any cattle, shall be deemed to have contravened the provisions of these by-laws.

19. If any person passes or attempts to pass into any slaughter-house any cattle, swine, sheep or goat, which has not been inspected, passed and (in the case of cattle) marked by the broad arrow by an officer duly authorized by the Government, such animal may be detained by the officer in charge, and such person and also the owner of such animal shall each be deemed to have contravened the provisions of these by-laws. Any magistrate may order such animal to be forfeited and dealt with as the Chairman of the Urban Council may determine.
