LONDON GOVERNMENT ACT.
Beyond the variation of boundaries and increased powers under
Part III. of the Housing Act, 1890, and duties taken over from the
London County Council, the London Government Act does not
materially affect the position or procedure of your Committee as
the Sanitary Authority of the district, now a Borough.
As to the Housing Act, the Borough Council has decided to
appoint a Special Committee to deal with this question. There is
a splendid field for its operations in the district.
With regard to the alterations of the boundaries of the parish,
this, of course, varied the areas of the Sanitary Inspectors' districts,
and it will, therefore, be desirable for the information of the Council
as a whole to describe how the Borough is divided into sanitary
districts:—
District A.—Inspector Richards.
The portion of the Borough east of Cambridge Road from
St. John's Church to the Canal boundary line and north of
Green Street and Roman Road to the boundary line in Driffield
Road.
District B.—Inspector Bridel.
The portion south of Bethnal Green Road from Wilmot
Street along Green Street and Roman Road to the boundary
at Lyall Road and east of Wilmot Street, Finnis Street along
Collingwood Street to the boundary at Whitechapel Road.
District C.—Inspector Weston.
The portion south of Bethnal Green Road from Shoreditch
boundary to Wilmot Street and west of Wilmot Street, Finnis
Street along Collingwood Street to Whitechapel boundary.
District D.—Inspector Henley.
The portion north of Bethnal Green Road and west of
Cambridge Road from Paradise Row to Old Bethnal Green
Road, and south of Old Bethnal Green Road along Wellington
Row and Columbia Road from the "Birdcage" P.H. to
Hackney Road.
