As a result of action taken under Section 41 of the Public
Health Act, 1875, the drainage systems of the under-mentioned
premises were opened out and examined and found to be in a
defective condition and to require alteration and amendment.
Notices were served upon the owners to reconstruct the defective
drainage systems and were not complied with. Estimates were,
therefore, obtained from local builders for carrying out the works
in default. The work was done under the supervision of the
department, and the costs recovered from the owners after being
apportioned as required by the provisions of the Public Health Act.
