Sanitary Nuisances and Contraventions of Sanitary By-laws-Table IX shows the total number of nuisances reported, the action taken to obtain compliance and amount of fines. Of the total number of nuisances reported in which action was taken almost 70% were abated after receipt of a letter. In 158 cases a legal notice failed to produce compliance. Of the summonses which followed 143 secured convictions, 4 were discharged and 4 withdrawn.

2. Table X shows the nuisances in respect of which action has been taken.

3. Table XI (i) shows the Health Districts from which these nuisances were reported and Table XI (ii) gives details of all prosecutions and amount of fines inflicted.

4. Building Nuisances-Table XI (i) line 1 shows by districts the number of nuisances under Part III of the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance reported by the Department to the Building Authority for action. These are additional to those referred to in paragraph 1 above.

5. Although Table XI (i) shows a considerable balance in favour of new domestic premises over similar premises demolished, there is no evidence of any decrease in overcrowding. This is especially true of the central districts in the City of Victoria.

6. Miscellaneous improvements.-Table XI (i) lines 3, 4, 5 show miscellaneous improvements effected by District Inspectors in their districts. Lines 7, 8, 9, 10 show the number of houses demolished and erected. The great majority of these are tenement houses.

7. Housing.-Table XII shows the numbers of tenement houses in the several districts erected in conformity to the requirements of Sections 175, 179 and 180 respectively of the Public Health and Buildings Ordinance.

8. House Cleansing.-The routine work under the by-laws for the Prevention and Mitigation of Epidemic Diseases was carried out during the year. Table XIII shows the number of floors cleansed in the various districts and as compared with the last two years.
