CERTIFICATES OF UNFITNESS
Under the Housing Subsidies Act, 1956 where a local
authority proposes to demolish dwellings which have been
purchased by them for clearance purposes, to establish the
unfitness of these dwellings the Minister of Housing and
Local Government requires a Certificate from the Medical
Officer of Health as to the unfitness of the dwellings,
and also requires a local authority to pass a Resolution
that the houses be demolished as unfit.
