Gentlemen,
I have the honour to submit to you
the usual Annual Statement of the measures carried
out during the year ending Lady Day, 1867, under
the direction of the Sanitary Committee, for the

Proceedings under the Local Management Act.

March 25th, 1867, 675 preliminary Orders for the
improvement of houses, or for the removal of
nuisances, received the sanction of the Sanitary
Committee. Of these, 527 have been complied
with, while the rest have been transferred to the
list for 1867.

which had in every instance attended the proceedings'
taken in this Parish for the enforcement of
