During the year 1,507 rooms were disinfected, and 7,540
articles were subjected to steam disinfection at the Council's
Yard. Only a few complaints were received during the year as
to damage done to bedding, &c.; every care is taken by the
disinfectors. Most of the articles destroyed was by desire of
the owners. Disinfecting fluid is supplied gratis, where required,
