offensive condition. Tho Committee consider that steps should be
taken to prevent the existing state of things, which can only be
done by enforcing a regulation requiring the removal of barrows,
carts, stalls, &c., by a specified time on Sunday mornings.
And recommend that the resolution of the Vestry that
regulation No. 13 bo no longer enforced bo rescinded, and that the
first clause of the regulation be altered thus: "All shopkeepers
are required to remove at or beforo twelve o'clock on Sunday
mornings all things put or deposited by them on any carriageway,
and all things put or deposited by them on any footway, and
extending beyond 18 inches from any house or premisesand that
the second clause of the regulation bo altered by inserting twelve
o'clock, instead of eleven o'clock.
On the motion that the recommendations contained in the Report
be adopted, debate arose, and the further consideration was
adjourned. On the debate being resumed, an amendment that
the subject stand over for six mouths was moved and carried; but
that resolution was subsequently rescinded, and in February the
recommendations of the Committee were approved and adopted.
Regulation No. 13, as altered, is—
Sunday Morninga.—All shopkeepers are required to remove, at
or beforo twelve o'clock at noon on Sundays, all things put or
deposited by them on any carriageway, and all things put or
deposited by them on any footway, and extending beyond 18 inches
from any house or premises.
And all barrows, carts, stalk, and things of every sort belonging
to costermongers, street hawkers, or itinerant traders, must be
removed and cleared away from the foot and carriage ways at or
beforo twelve o'clock at noon on Sundays.
