Fried Fish Shops.
These are also being kept clean. A complaint received
respecting the non removal of offal by the owner was

received.
Housing Act, 1936—Overcrowding Provisions.
This work continues to occupy a large part of the
Assistants' time in supplying owners and agents with the
prescribed number that each house can occupy.
Clearance Orders-
A large amount of preliminary work has been carried
out in connection with the Council's scheme.
Inspection of District-
I desire to point out that to enable the Department to
carry out the requirements of the Ministry of Health in a
systematic and proper manner, it is most essential that an
additional Inspector be appointed as early as possible. This
work cannot be carried out with the present staff. I estimate
that the population has increased since 1930 by about
22,000.
In conclusion, I again desire to thank you, the Chairman,
and members of the Public Health Committee, for the
way they have supported me in carrying out my duties, and
also to state that I fully appreciate the help of the Staff of
the Department, and my colleagues of the other Departments
for their ready assistance.
I am, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
H. J. ROWDON,
Chief Sanitary Inspector.
