CANAL BOATS.
Brentford is the Registration Authority for the whole of the
surrounding District. There are 307 boats on the Council's
Register, one new boat having been registered.
During the year 16 boats were examined, and with one
exception the condition of the boats and their occupants was satisfactory.
Five infringements of the Acts and Regulations were
detected. They are as follows:—
Boat not registered 1
Master without Certificate 2
Cabin dirty 1
No water vessel 1
No legal proceedings were taken in respect of any infringements.
Three complaints notes were issued, all of which have been returned
to me signed by some duly appointed inspector of Canal Boats.
I am pleased to report that no cases of Infectious Disease have
been notified upon any of the boats, and therefore it has not been
necessary to detain any vessel for the purpose of cleansing and
disinfection.
