Report of the Medical Officer of Health.
Rent and Mortgage Interest Restrictions Act, 1923.
80 applications for Certificates were received during the
year. On inspection it was found that 79 of the premises were
not reasonably fit for human habitation, and one was reasonably
fit.
Of the 79 premises not reasonably fit, seven of them were
put in a reasonable state of repair before the meeting of the Committee
at which Certificates would have been granted.
Of the 72 premises in respect of which Certificates were
granted, 66 were rendered reasonably fit during the year, and
the remaining six are in hand.
