Housing and Town Planning Act, 1909.
The premises, 147,149, Stebondale Street, Cubitt Town, were reported
to be dealt with under this Act, as unfit for human habitation and upon
your representation to the Council closing orders were made—at the
date of this report the premises are unoccupied and specifications have
been prepared by the owner covering the work necessary to render these
houses fit for reoccupation—which will be put in hand at an early date.
Premises where Food Stuffs were Sold or Prepared for Sale.
Periodical inspections were made of the following premises:—
Bakehouses, 7.
Slaughterhouses, 1.
Tripe dressers and sausage makers, 9
Dailies and milk shops, 19.
Ice cream vendors, 18.
Coffee shops and dining rooms, 31.
Fish shops, 12.
In-all cases where cleansing, limewashing, or other works of sanitary
improvements were necessary the matter was brought to the notice of
the occupiers by written intimation, which in every case was complied
with. The regularity of the periodical inspection of these premises has
impressed upon the occupiers the necessity of cleanliness and limewashing,
etc., of kitchens and places where food is prepared or stored
This was proved by the amount of work already completed or in progress
(without notice) at the time of my visits.
Riverside Wharves and Food Preserving Factories.
Frequent visits were made to the undermentioned wharves and
factories, and records were kept of all unsound foodstuffs and methods
of destruction.
