Housing (Inspection of District) Regulations, 1910
Representations and Closing Orders Under Section 17 (2).
Thirty-nine premises were inspected under Section 17 (1) of the
Housing and Town Planning, etc., Act, 1909, and in the first place, as a
rule, intimations and statutory notices were served upon owners under
the Public Health (London) Act, 1891, in order that the defects might
be remedied and thereby prevent " Representations " under the Housing,
Town Planning, etc., Act., 1909, which would be followed by the Council
making "Closing Orders." The following is a list of dwelling-houses
inspected, and the work executed; but in 17 cases "Representations"
were made followed by "Closing Orders":—
