Q.
'A.
was the result of the deliberatione of the h of the four firms.
Now, I am going to put the questions to you. Do you think the amalgamation of the Building Authority and Sanitary Board would be conducive to better administrat- ion of the Ordinance ?
Yes, the passing of plana submitted to Local Authorit- ies at home is usually carried out on the following lines. A meeting of the Local Authority is held at stated times on fixed dates at regular intervals, which are known to the Architects. Plans to be considered at any particular meeting have to be deposited by a certain fixed time before such meeting of three days to one week. (1) Any plans that conform
to the regulations, (that is to say plans that conform
to all regulations), are so marked by the Surveyor to
the Authority, and prepared for signature by the Chairman. (2). Other plans are prepared for submission as to legal, sanitary or apspial points, and distussed
at the meeting, when the officials concerned are present. In most cases, a decision is come to at the time, and plans passed or returned for revision in time
té come up at the following meeting. In the case of (1) notification of approval of plans is usually obtained within three days of the meating. In the case of (2), within three days of the second meeting. My experience haa haan gained in various localities, including the old Metropolitan Board of Works, the London County Council, City Engineer's Office, Liverpool, Weat Ram Borough Council, Reading Rorough Council, Rast Tam Local heard, Leyton Local Board, Barking Local Board, and many others.
