Demolition Orders.
Demolition Orders have been made on the following insanitary
houses:—
1, 3, 5 and 7, Fairfield Street.
16 and 18, Little Manor Street.
Alternative accommodation was provided, where necessary,
for the occupiers of these six houses and the houses have been
demolished.
Closing Orders.
Closing Orders were made in respect of basement rooms at
23, Elms Road and 117, Larkhall Lane. In the former case, the
order was enforced, but the room at 117, Larkhall Lane was still
occupied at the end of the year.
In October, I made a representation to the effect that a basement
room at each of the nine houses, 66, 68, 70, 72, 74, 76, 78,
80 and 82, The Chase, was unfit for habitation, and the Council
decided to take action under Section 20 of the Housing Act, 1930,
in respect of these rooms.
