and street-cleansing is carried out by this department as best it can, but in the areas to which you refer there are usually factors which make it impossible for this department to do more than it is doing now.

In the streets which you have mentioned in your question, I have instructed that special attention be paid to cleansing.
ADJOURNMENT.
CHAIRMAN: That concludes the business of this meeting and the Council stands adjourned until Tuesday, 4th November, 1958.
