NOTE.—Since writing the above, a case that went from Old Street
Police Court for decision in the High Court on the vexed question of
whether the Act referred to and included "remakes," has been decided
adversely to the Local Authority. As a consequence it is probable that
the prospect of any further successful action under this Act, as at present
drawn, has become somewhat remote.
