The number of certificates granted under the Increase of
Rent and Mortgage Interest (Restriction) Act, 1920, during the
year was 35. In order to obtain any relief under the Sanitary
Certificate Section action must be taken by the tenant at the
County Court, and there is on this account no eagerness to take
advantage of the Section. An owner of property bringing in
approximately £2,000 a year in small sums varying from 9s. to
12s. weekly has informed me that when the Act expires steps will
be taken as regards this particular housing property, not only to
raise the rent, but to induce the tenants to sign repairing agreements.
