Factory and Workshops Act, 1901.
Your Sanitary Inspector carries out the work of inspection
under this Act, and he has only on one occasion found it necessary
to call on me to inspect a laundry, which I found to be in an unsatisfactory
condition. The tenant in this case vacated the house.
The other matters requiring attention were remedied on notice
being given.

Housing, Town Planning, &c. Act, 1909.
A system for carrying out the necessary inspection according
to the Housing (Inspection of District) Regulations, 1910, has been
approved by this Council; the Sanitary Inspector being the officer
designated to make the inspections. Where difficulties arise I also
visit and inspect.
Details are taken on the spot in a note-book with special
headings, and these are afterwards transferred to duplicated foolscap
sheets. This record with any resulting correspondence, copies
of notices, &c., in respect of each house is placed in a paper folder,
numbered, filed, and card indexed; so that the particulars respecting
any house which has been inspected under the Regulations can
be easily referred to.
