SMOKE ABATEMENT.
Inspector Perrin is special Smoke Inspector to the Borough
Council of Lambeth, and during 1902 has made 679 observations
and enquiries in connection with smoke abatement throughout
the Borough, as compared with 620 during 1901. This is an
important duty, and one that a Sanitary Authority is right in
carrying out rigorously.
57 smoke notices have been served, and the nuisances abated
without it having been necessary to proceed to summonses in any
case during 1902.

weekly during 1902:—
