It is gratifying to be able to report again that the great majority of occupiers are quick to comply with
any requirements brought to their attention. In 1969 only eighteen cases were passed to the Council's
Legal Division and in no case was Court proceedings found to be necessary.
The willing co-operation and assistance of Her Majesty's Factory Inspectorate and, in particular, the
appointed Authorised Officer of the Department of Employment and Productivity is gratefully acknowledged.
Tables attached to this report give details of the premises inspected, the number of visits made and a
