Workmen's
Annual Holiday.
Your Committee considered the question
of the usual grant of one day's holiday with full pay and 5s.
in addition to the employs of the Vestry.
Recommended:— That in lieu of the usual grant of one
day's holiday with full pay and 5s. in addition, one week's
holiday during the year with full pay be given to all the
workmen under your Committee who have been 12 months
or upwards in the employment of the Vestry, the Surveyor
having informed the Committee that the work can be
arranged so as not to incur any extra expense.
Approved by the Vestry, 29th June, 1892.
By-Laws,
Public Health.
The question of By-laws was considered
at length by your Committee. The Public Health (London)
Act, 1891, imposes the duty of making By-laws on the
Sanitary Authority. These By-laws relate to the
"Prevention of Nuisances," " The keeping of Water Closets
supplied with water sufficient for their efficient action."
and the "Cleansing of Cisterns." Section 94 of the Act
also requires that By-laws shall be made with reference
to Houses Let in Lodgings, or occupied by members of
more than one family, which are not Common Lodging
Houses; but this Vestry had already made Regulations
under Section 35 of the Sanitary Act, 1866, which are
kept in force by Section 142 of the Public Health (London)
Act, 1891. Your Committee made the following draft
By-laws for the approval of the Local Government Board,
and upon such draft being approved by the Board the
Vestry was asked to seal the same.
