Employment Agencies.
Section 74 of the Herts County Council Act 1935 requires
a Local Authority to furnish the County Council during the first
week in October in each year, with a report on the conduct and
management of employment agencies within their district, with
recommendations for the renewal of the Licences or otherwise.
During the year the County Council asked for reports in
respect of the following premises previously licenced:-
(1) Constance Evelyn Briers, 11a, High Street, Barnet.
(2) Rosa Figes Coward, 22, High Street, Barnet.
(3) Winifred Doris Larkins, 203'^ High Street, Barnet.
I found these premises to he suitable for the purpose,
and inspected the books which were kept in a satisfactory manner.
Consequently no objection was raised to the renewal of
the Licences.
In addition to the above renewals of Licences an application
for an Employment Agency Licence was made by Miss D. Lees,
6, Lawn Mansions, High Street, Barnet, I was asked to inspect
the premises and report to the County Council. The agency seeks
to provide secretarial work in connection with a Secretarial College
at the same address.
Upon my report the Council offered no objection to the
issue of a Licence,
