Power of Minister to obtain a report on any crowded area.
|
44.—If it appears to the Minister that owing to density of population, or any other reason, it is expedient to inquire into the circumstances of any area with a view to determining whether any powers under the Housing of the Working Classes Acts should be put into force in that area or not, the Minister may require the local authority to make a report to him containing such particulars as to the population of the district and other matters as he may direct and the local authority shall comply with the requirement of the Minister, and any expenses incurred by them in so doing shall be paid as expenses incurred in the execution of such part of the Act of 1890 as amended by any subsequent enactment including this Act as the Minister may determine.
