Rural Sanitary Authority Minute Books (Labourers Acts)
Scope and Content: Volumes recording minutes of proceedings of the board of guardians acting as the rural sanitary authority under the Labourers (Ireland) Acts, 1883, 1885 and 1886. Meetings were generally held weekly, and minutes are signed by the clerk, acting as executive sanitary officer. The principal subject is schemes for erecting labourers’ cottages, and related actions. These include appointing local committees, appointing engineers, selecting and acquiring sites, seeking and approving tenders, receiving loans from the Commissioners of Public Works, monitoring progress, letting to tenants, rents, disputes, and communicating with the LGB on all aspects of each scheme. In December 1886, an inquiry was held by the LGB inspector after it was found that many of the intended cottages were uninhabitable. The Kinsale Union Labourers Order 1887 was consequently passed to facilitate execution of approved schemes. There are many gaps in the minutes after 1892, and no business was transacted at most of the meetings in 1897 and 1898. Under the Local Government (Ireland) Act, 1898, labou rers’ cottages became the responsibility of Kinsale Rural District Council.
