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

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
