LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
I have great pleasure in being able to state that, throughout the year, the Magistrates have generally upheld
the proceedings which the Board have authorised me to take; and, where the offences have been proved,
orders have been granted, or substantial penalties have been inflicted, with the result that less delay has
taken place between the service of Notices and execution of necessary Sanitary Works, which must have a
corresponding and beneficial effect upon the public health.
