The duties of sanitary authorities in relation to the sanitation
of factories are few, and are limited mainly to the enforcement
of suitable and sufficient sanitary accommodation for
factory employees.
Twenty-nine new factory premises were added to the
register during the year, dealing with: (a) builders, 2; (b)
engineering, 11; (c) furniture, 2; (d) motor works, 5; (e)
miscellaneous, 9.
During the year 43 preliminary and 5 Statutory notices
were served under the Public Health (London) Act, 1891, for
defects found on factory premises, for the most part relating
to defective or insufficient sanitary accommodation, all of
which were duly remedied.
