Additional Water Supplies to Tenemented Houses.
During the year, 1910, the matter of providing additional water
supplies on the upper floors of tenemented houses, where such additional
water supplies were found to be necessary, has been vigilantly attended
to by the Inspectors. In the following table I have shown the action
that was taken under Section 78 of the London County Council (General
Powers) Act, 1907.
