apparel are few in number, and come mainly under the heading
of Domestic Workshops. All these various premises have been
inspected by myself and the sanitary inspector, and I am
satisfied that their sanitary circumstances are suitable; no
contraventions under the act of any moment have come under
notice.
The Workshops and Workplaces in the district are 19 in
number, and persons employed in them (but not all constantly
employed) are approximately 85 in number.
Bakehouses, are designated workshops in the Act; the number
on the register is 15, as compared with 14 for last year. The
new bakehouses which have been built in the district during the
last few years are constructed on model principles. No
contraventions of the Act have come under notice, except
as regards lime whiteing. Notice has been served in two cases
for this to be done.
With regard to factories H.M. Inspector is responsible for
the sanitary circumstances generally, and in case of default he
reports to the Council. No complaint has been received during
the year.
