BYELAWS RELATING TO HOUSES INTENDED OR USED
FOR OCCUPATION BY THE WORKING CLASSES AND LET
IN LODGINGS OR OCCUPIED BY MEMBERS OF MORE
THAN ONE FAMILY.
These Byelaws were made on 24th March, 1930, and confirmed
on 13th May, 1930. They do not apply to any lodginghouse
in which the occupier resides and not more than one family
is lodged. Parts of these byelaws, involving structural alterations,
do not apply to any lodging-house the rent of which is for
the time being controlled by the Rent and Mortgage (Restrictions)
Acts, 1920 and 1923. In spite of these limitations, it has been
found that the byelaws have materially assisted in the campaign
for better housing conditions amongst families living in divided
houses.
A register is in process of compilation showing the number
of "lodging-houses" to which the byelaws can be wholly or
partly applied.
