Go on to that case of No 47 Queens Road West. Did that 422
prosecution emanate from this ?

Do you know of your own knowledge what evidence was given against that man ?
4423
I dont know. I would like that witness, Mr Small, called, to bear out what I say. I may say I mentioned it
to a Member of this Committee, Mr Lau Chų Pak, and what investigation followed, I dont know.

At-
You dont know whether he did or not?
I do know. I should like to say in regard to these instructions, the Senior Inspector was plainly told he must visit every house previous to prosecution. That was
clearly pointed out.
4426
As regards Inspector Lamble's suggestion, when you were 4417 Senior Inspector, did you find it impossible to go round
and visit every house?
I found it extremely hard work to visit every house for
limewashing, but I found it desirable to do so.
When a man complains of certain hardships, dont you
think the Chief officer in charge of the District should
go and verify it ?
Most certainly, in all cases of complaint.
4428
Were there so many cases of complaint, do you think that
the Senior Inspector would not have time to visit every
house ↑
