SEIZURE OF UNWHOLESOME FOOD.
During last year one seizure was made of food
which was unsound, unwholesome and unfit for the
food of man, particulars of which are given under the
head of summonses heard.
HOUSES LET IN LODGINGS.
During the last year the Public Health Committee
gave directions for the registration of 465 "houses let
in lodgings or occupied by the members of more than
one family," making a total with those previously
ordered to be registered of 4,279 premises. Upon the
registration a copy of the Bye-laws of your Council,
under which such houses are registered, was forwarded
to the landlord (within the meaning of the Bye-laws)
for his guidance. From various causes 747 houses
have been removed from the list, leaving a total number
now on the Register of 3,532. During the year 166
notices were served and 126 were complied with. The
registered premises were visited as often as time
would allow by the special Inspector appointed for
that purpose.
