It should be explained that there is no desire to abolish
the existing Health Society but rather to incorporate it into a
larger organisation to cover the entire district. It is hoped
that the members of the Council and their friends will assist to
form a much larger and more representative Society or Association
whose objects and duties will be to cover the entire district,
and who acting in conjunction with the Council and its officers
will take all necessary measures to carry out the work of an
auxiliary Health Society.
The immediate questions for the consideration of the
Conference appear to be:—
(a) Shall such work be done under the auspices of the
Council, or if done at all,
(b) Left to a Society acting on its own initiative outside
and independent of the Council.
Assuming the Council decides to support the Mayor in his
effort to deal with the above matters, it seems that the next
step will be to consider as to forming some Society or Association
whose duties and objects should be to carry into effect the
above suggestion on lines similar to the existing Health
Societies or Associations existing in many other Boroughs and
districts.

Food That very important matter of the supervision of
inspection.
food-stuffs exposed for sale in various parts of the
Borough has continued to receive the close attention
of the department. Mr. Rowsell has continued the
daily inspection of the market places and stalls with
most satisfactory results. In this connection Mr.
Ainley has on many occasions as heretofore rendered
most valuable and ready assistance.
