There were 314 inspections of workshops made by the
male Inspectors, together with 216 of laundries. 20 new and
184 old were inspected, such inspections needing the serving
of 42 intimation notices. The difficulty lies chiefly with the
small laundries owned by persons of limited means, and who
are put to great straits to carry out even the most essential
improvements.
Before concluding this Report I wish to express my
thanks to the Staff for the help they have always so cheerfully
given.
I am, Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
FRANCIS STEVENS,
Medical Officer of Health.
