Refuse-During the year 23,963 tons of house, trade,

and disposed of at the controlled tip.
In addition 17,325 tons of refuse from a neighbouring

Refuse Disposal Depot.
Street Cleansing-Two mechanical sweeper-collector machines
supplement the work of manual sweepers in the daily

three machines are employed for the purpose of washing
and watering the main thoroughfares.
Gully cleansing-Four gully emptying machines have carried
out 11,888 cleansings of the gullies during the year,
