perishable articles of
food only ?
Yes, certainly.
(b) Should they be limited
to vendors who
are resident in the
district ?
Yes.

be registered or
licensed ?

Buildings in
London.
The Vestry considered a letter from the
President of the Local Government Board
enclosing draft of a Bill which had been prepared for the
purpose of consolidating the enactments relating to the
construction and use of Buildings in London, and asking to
be furnished with any observations or suggestions which
the Vestry may desire to offer on the draft Bill as a
Consolidation Bill.
