      article;
        (4) the number of violations issued pursuant to this article that were
      certified  as  corrected by the owner, the number of such certifications
      that did not result in the removal of such violations, and the number of
      civil actions brought by the department against such owners; and
        (5) the number of jobs performed in which violations  issued  pursuant
      to this article were corrected by the department, the total amount spent

      dwellings  in  which  violations  are placed, indicating the ages of the
      multiple dwellings and other  factors  relevant  to  the  prevalence  of
      lead-based  paint hazards, which may include the prior lead poisoning of
      a child in the multiple dwelling, outstanding violations, and  emergency
      repair charges.
        b.  The department of health and mental hygiene shall prepare a report
      on progress toward increasing screening rates and reducing the incidence
      rates of children newly identified with elevated blood lead levels. This

      indicate,  if  applicable,  the  date  of  the complaint, address of the
      premises, and the date of each inspection and reinspection.
