SANITARY ADMINISTRATION.
ANNUAL REPORT
OF
THE SANITARY INSPECTOR
1937
Public Health Department,
Municipal Offices,
New Malden.
To The Mayor, Aldermen and Councillors.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have the pleasure to submit my eighteenth annual
report of work accomplished and matters of interest concerning
the Sanitary Department.
I am glad to state that, in April, a second additional
sanitary inspector was appointed and this has assisted
considerably in allowing more time to be given to routine
work.
House to house inspections were carried out in a
number of streets.
For the purpose of abating nuisances and
executing repairs to render houses fit for human
habitation, the following notices were served under the
Public Health, Housing and other Acts and Regulations
affecting public health.
Preliminary. Formal.
Notices served 312 83
Complied 297 48
Remaining outstanding ... 15 35
It was not necessary to institute legal proceedings
for the abatement of nuisances or other sanitary matters.
Good relations have again been maintained with property
owners and much work has been done and inspected
without notice.
