![On 1st January, 1926, a new series of Byelaws respecting the control of Houses Let in Lodgings, came into operation. Byelaw No. 8 requires the occupier to furnish a statement for registration and inspection of such houses, and during the year 46 statements were received by the Health Department. A special enquiry was made as to the suitability of the houses where application for registration was made during the year. It was ascertained in connection with this enquiry that the total number of families occupying Houses Let in Lodgings was 199 and this included 453 adults and 139 children. Only houses are in¬ cluded where a regular business of sub-letting is carried on, as it would be quite impracticable to deal with the multitude of houses where sub-letting occurs on a small scale.
