Private Streets.
I am very pleased to say that during the past year further
attention has been given to the making up of Private Streets
in the districts. This work is very desirable from a health point
of view, and will, I trust, be proceeded with as opportunity offers
until completion. The amount expended for this purpose
during the past year has been very little short of £3,000.
Housing of the Working Classes Act.
No proceedings under this Act were taken during the
year.
