Willesden Local Board.
COMMON LODGING HOUSES.
These were inspected from time to time and
found to be well managed. They, however, are not
of the usual type, being only coffee houses, where a
few beds are let, and in many cases the lodgers are
continuous.
CANAL BOATS.
During the year 49 visits were made to the
Canal within the District by the Inspector and
inspections were made of 105 boats.
There were 29 cases of contravention, notices
of which were served on the owners requiring
amendment, all of which were complied with and
duly vouched for.
INFANT LIFE PROTECTION ACT.
There are now no licensed premises under this
Act in the District, as no renewals were taken up
and no new premises were licensed.
HOUSES LET IN LODGINGS.
Under Section 90, 320 houses were registered
during the year. They were visited and the Byelaws
found to be generally complied with.
HOUSE REFUSE AND SCAVENGING.
The details of these works will be found in the
Reports of the Engineer.
I may state that the Dusting is carried out by
two Contractors for a section of the District each
for a lump sum, which includes the provision of a
shoot.
This is mostly by Canal to the Brickfields a
few miles out.
