Rent Act, 1957 (Rent Act, 1968) Certificates of Disrepair
The following is a copy of a return made under the Rent Act,
1957 (Rent Act, 1968) to the Ministry of Housing and Local
Government for the year 1969.
The Ministry has now decided that after this year this return
may now be discontinued. They may however ask for this information
from time to time in respect of a particular Local Authority
and the records from which these returns are prepared will
continue to be kept by the department.
