It will be seen from the above list that hitherto no eases have been
reported from the Victoria Hospital for Children, but it is understood
that in future this hospital will also report any cases in this Borough
where the home conditions are probably such as to be injurious to the
health of the child.
In a few instances the reports referred to matters which could not
be dealt with by the Public Health Department, and so these families
were not visited.
