enforced, but on the other hand, houses at present standing, leniency
and discretion should be shown in any alterations required in their
sanitary arrangements; for these houses having been built many
years ago, it is a difficult matter to apply to them modern sanitary
arrangements.
Some of the works completed have taken a long time to carry
out. Exeter Hall and the Hotel Victoria, for instance, took months,
and I could enumerate many more, such as large business houses.
In concluding these remarks on this subject, I must bear testimony
to the intilligence and zeal in which your Inspector, Mr. G. A. Allan,
is displaying in the discharge of his duties; he is doing the work
in a manner so as to produce as little friction as possible, and I
think I may safely say he has been so far successful.
Appended is a list of those premises where notices and plans
have been sent in of intention to lay down new drains since the
commencement of this inspection up to the end of February, 1895.
