CUSTOMS AND INLAND REVENUE ACTS.
During the year 11 applications were received for
certificates under these Acts.
There was a very considerable amount of work
which had to be carried out in reference to these
applications. In no case was the certificate granted
until the whole of the sanitary requirements were
carried out so as to place the premises in a proper
sanitary condition.
I decided to refuse certificates in all cases in which
gas stoves were used which were not provided with a
hood and ventilated so as to carry off the products of
combustion.

Table: The following is a list of premises which were inspected, under the Inland Revenue Acts, last year:—
