Abstract:

The objects of this essay are to examine the reasons for the passing of the Workers' Dwellings Act 1905, and subsequent Workers' Dwellings enactments to examine who it benefitted and whether it fulfilled a need; and why it was not more fully developed.

The implementation of the Act is studied in Dunedin between 1905 and 1916, giving detailed insight into the working of the Act during that period. [from Introduction]
