The keeper of a common lodging-house shall, if required by the local authority so to do, affix, and keep affixed and undefaced and legible, a notice with the words "Registered Common Lodging-house" in some conspicuous place on the outside of the house.
Either the keeper of the lodging-house, or a deputy registered under this Part of this Act, shall manage the lodging-house and exercise supervision over persons using it, and either the keeper or a deputy so registered shall be at the lodging-house continuously between the hours of nine o'clock in the evening and six o'clock in the morning of the following day.
The local authority may by notice require the keeper of a common lodging-house in which beggars or vagrants are received to report daily to them, or to such person as they may direct, every lodger who resorted to the house during the preceding day or night, but an authority who require such reports to be made shall supply to the keeper of the lodging-house schedules to be filled up by him with the information required and to be transmitted by him in accordance with their notice.
The keeper of a common lodging-house, and every other person having the care or taking part in the management thereof, shall at all times, if required by an authorised officer of the local authority, allow him to have free access to all parts of the house.
