necessary to institute legal proceedings, in any case for the abatement
of nuisances and non-compliance with London County
Council's and Council's own Bye-laws, as the statutory notices
served were complied with.
Inspection of Eating-houses (Coffee-shops, and Stewed Eel-shops),
Pork Butchers, Sausage Makers and Fried Fish Shops.

made, was there cause for complaint, so far as food was concerned.
Inspection of Bakehouses.
I have, as specially instructed, made the periodical inspections
of the bakehouses, and where required served extracts of the
Factory and Workshop Act 1901 and statutory notices for the
