* If an occupier gives out work of more than one of the classes specified in column 1, and subdivides his list in such a way as to show
the number of workers in each class of work, the list is included among those in column 2 (or 5 as the case may be) against the principal class
only, but the outworkers are assigned in columns 3 and 4 (or 6 and 7)into their respective classes.
† The figures required in columns 2, 3 and 4 are the total number of the lists received from those employers who comply strictly with the
statutory duty of sending two lists each year and of the entries of names of outworkers in those lists. The entries in column 2 must necessarily
be even numbers, as there will be two lists for each employer—in some previous returns odd numbers have been inserted. The figures in columns
3 and 4 will usually be (approximately) double of the number of individual outworkers whose names are given, since in the February anc. August lists
of the same employer the same outworker's name will often be repeated. § In view of the wide discrepancies found to exist between the totals in the two columns when the returns are added together, it is desired that
care may be taken to give exact figures. Only those addresses should be counted which have actually been received from or forwarded to other
Councils during the year covered bv the report.
N.B.-In addition to the inspections of 735 outworkers premises, 542 visits were also paid, but the outworkers' were found to have left or not
to be at work, or the premises to be vacant.
