NUISANCES.
In the following summary some idea of the amount of work done in relation
to nuisances is given. For details of other works carried out by the inspectors,
reference must be made to the sections dealing with housing, food, infectious
diseases, etc.
In regard to nuisances, the first point to note is that the total number of
complaints received was 2,598, practically the same (2,600) as in 1931. The
majority of these complaints were made by the inspectors themselves, though a
certain number came from other members of the Council's staff, from voluntary
workers of the St. Marylebone Health Society, members of the Children's Care
Committee, neighbours and others. In respect of nuisances, 81 statutory notices
were issued, the figure being 84 in 1931.
