HOUSE TO HOUSE.
During the year the House to House Visitation
was carried out by the Inspector appointed for that
purpose up to the middle of October, when the work
was taken over by the Inspectors appointed to the
districts.
As a result of this work, 1,378 inspections were
made, 479 notices served, and 576 complied with.
HOUSES LET IN LODGINGS.
During the last year the Public Health Committee
gave directions for the registration of 215 "houses let
in lodgings or occupied by the members of more than
one family," making a total with those previously
registered of 2,732 premises. Upon the registration a
copy of the By-laws of your Council, under which
such houses are registered, was forwarded to the landlord
(within the meaning of the By-laws) for his
guidance. From various causes 60 houses have been
removed from the list, leaving a total number now on
the Register of 2,672. During the year 709 notices
were served and 765 were complied with. The
registered premises were visited as often as time
would allow by the special Inspectors appointed for
that purpose.
