The Inspector said that the drainage matter at Avon Dassett had been seen to. Miss Perry had the work properly done as soon as she knew what was required. With regard to the case of overcrowding in the same village, he said he found that eleven people slept in the house, which had only one fair-sized bedroom. Ten slept upstairs, and one, an invalid, downstairs. He had urged upon the people the necessity of two of the grown-ups getting lodgings. He had seen Mr Wadland, upon whose farm the cottage was. He agreed that the matter was a serious one, and he (the Inspector) found the family were now leaving.

The Chairman said that was the case.
