"The sanitary history of the year under
"review should include a record alike of the
"proceedings of the Medical Officer of Health
"himself and of the proceedings taken under
"his direction or advice.
"What has been said above with regard
"to the information which an annual report
"should contain must be understood, not as
"suggesting that the report should be limited
"to these subjects, or that more detailed or
"differently arranged tabular statements may
"not be added, but as indicating the sort of
"information required by the Board's Order.
"Many Medical Officers of Health will doubt"less,
with great advantage to the administra"tion
of their districts, furnish much more
"detailed information respecting particular
"questions to which they have been led by the
"circumstances of the foregoing years to devote
"attention, or in the investigation of which
"they may have arrived at valuable con"elusions.
Any information of this kind will
"be appreciated by the Local Government
"Board."
