LONDON COUNTY COUNCIL (GENERAL
POWERS) ACT, 1904.
Verminous Rooms.* Licensed Premises' Urinals.
Verminous Rooms.
Verminous rooms are still brought to the notice of owners upon the
"Intimations" which are followed, if necessary, by "Statutory Notices,"
more especially as there are generally other defects upon the premises,
and certainly verminous premises are "in such a state as to be a nuisance
to health," and owners, if they do not already know, are informed when
defects are being dealt with under the Public Health (London) Act, 1891,
that the vermin must be got rid of, otherwise the London County Council
(General Powers) Act, 1904, will be brought into operation.
When a notice is served for cleansing under the bye-laws for houses
let in lodgings or occupied by members of more than one family, should
the premises be verminous a special intimation to that effect is enclosed.
Seven certificates had to be given to the Public Health and Housing
Committee.

No summonses were applied for.
Licensed Premises' Urinals.
Six notices were served under Section 22 of the London County
Council (General Powers) Act, 1904, calling upon the owners to provide
proper doors to the urinals attached to their licensed premises.
* For the Cleansing of Verminous Persons see pages 102 and 103.
