CANAL BOATS.
They were as follows :—
| Cabin leaking | 1 |
| Absence of water vessel | 2 |
| Marking | 1 |
| Overcrowding | 1 |
| Painting | 2 |
| No Certificate produced | 1 |
| Boat not registered in accordance with the Act | 1 |
No legal proceedings have been taken in respect of any
infringements. Three complaint notes were issued, two of which
have been returned to me signed by an Officer appointed under the
Canal Boat Act. Likewise I have signed two complaint notes
issued by neighbouring authorities and also attended to various
other requirements.
No cases of infectious disease have been notified upon any of
the boats and therefore it has not been necessary to detain any vessel
for the purpose of cleansing and disinfection.
Two canal boats have been registered during the year, one being a motor driven boat.
| The number of boats on the register believed to be in use or available is | 301 |
| The number of boats that cannot be traced is | 14 |
| Total | 315 |
