In the ovent of removal from their present Bites of Milbank Penitentiary, Pentonville Penitentiary, and Coldbathfields Prison, such sites may be conveyed to the Metropolitan Board of Works, so that that body may be enabled, without incurring serious loss, to appropriate them for the purposes of labouring- class lodginghouses. The Artisans' Dwellings Act will be amended, and extended to all urban sanitary distriots in England. The general sanitary law will also be amended, and in any contract for letting an unfurnished house there shall be implied a condition that the house is in all respects reasonably fit for human habitation.
