The procedure which has hitherto been adopted in this district,
was to make a systematic house to house inspection in accordance
with the provisions of the Housing (Inspection of District) Regulations,
1910. Such inspection was regularly carried out up to
the outbreak of the War, every defective house as it was found,
being dealt with by notices either under the Public Health Acts,
or under the Housing and Town Planning Act, 1909. 438 houses
were found to be defective, and were dealt with in this manner
as the result of which practically all the defects found were
made good. Such survey is now being resumed and the Sanitary
Inspector has been provided with an Assistant to expedite the
work.
