You know that it is so nere, under sections 111 mưa 1189 In existing buildings, it is.

Well, I am speaking of existing buildings. Dont you 14199 think it would be far more advisable, if that were left

to a practical man ?

It would be rather a difficult question, as it lies at

present.

Why a difficult question. I ask you, from your exper-14200 ience in England, of similar bodies, whether it is not always left to the Surveyor, or an Engineer ↑

He would be able to do that in England, in an existing building, without any inspection.

14207

Supposing they passed a Bye Law, that it should be to the satisfaction of the Authority, it would not be left to the M. 0. H. to say whether it was good or bad ↑

A.

Not, in a matter of conorate.

14202

0.2 Q.

Dont you think that would be advisable, if there was similar arrangement here, that it shoula be left to a trained man, who has a knowledge of building ?

A.

It seems more reasonable.

14203

Dont you think that a Board out here, that had a Medical Officer of Health to advise them on all matters appertaining to hygiene and medical work, and a Civil Engineer, who should attend to all Buildings and structural alterations - it muld make a very good shange if we find a similar constitution of the Board ↑

A.

To a great extent, that is what exists now,
