HOUSES LET IN LODGINGS
OR OCCUPIED BY MEMBERS OF
MORE THAN ONE FAMILY.
The following are the Bye-laws for the regulation
of houses let in lodgings or occupied by
members of more than one family, finally
approved by the Commissioners of Sewers on
the 28th April, 1896, and confirmed by the
Local Government Board on the 8th May, 1896,
and which are now in operation.
I am now considering the institution of a
system of registration of the places concerned
in pursuance of Bye-law No. 5, which will
necessarily occupy much time and labour.
