SANITARY IMPROVEMENTS
during the year.
On reference being made to the Inspector's Report, it will show the
detailed Sanitary work carried out during the past year. This table
embodies the measures, which are being taken to prevent the spread
of disease and remove the local unsanitary conditions, to which
disease is so frequently due. The number of houses supplied with
water to closets were 1,494, nearly two hundred in excess of those
of last year. The number of first visits paid to the different houses
were 2,243, and altogether something like 1,845 sanitary defects
remedied during the year. It must be remembered, to carry out all
these improvements, entail very much tact, patience, and energy, on
the part of the Inspectors. Latterly the work of the Sanitary Inspectors
have been much facilitated, owing to a knowledge of the fact,
that their visits are for the assistance and protection of the poorer
classes, as well as for the more fortunate.
Out of the large number of cases mentioned, we had only to seek
magisterial aid in eight instances, most of which were for non-compliance
with orders for drainage, these were at once ordered by the
magistrate to be executed. The West Ward we find to be the most
trouble from a sanitary point of view, owing to a great extent to the
large proportion of foreigners which have invaded the district, thenhabits
being of such a character as to require constant supervision.
Owing to the vigilance exercised by your Inspector, the streets which
a little time ago were almost uninhabitable, are now in a fairly
healthy condition. In this ward we find underground rooms occupied
as sleeping apartments, the inhabitants of which are from time to time
served with notices to discontinue their use as such, but it not
constantly watched continue to use them.
