In addition to the officers referred to, Miss Harris,
Female Sanitary Inspector, is specially concerned in
those duties relating to the improvement of the health
conditions of women and children in the Borough. This
officer is more particularly under the direction of Dr.
Bate and I am only including her here, so as to make
the staff complete, and perhaps might be permitted to
add that I much appreciate the good work done by
Miss Harris since she has been in the Borough, and as
she is leaving, desire to record the fact that all her
relations with the other members of the staff have been
remarkably happy, and I can only trust that her successor
will endeavour to work on the same harmonious lines as
has been evinced by Miss Harris (now Mrs. Bridel) since
her appointment nearly 6 years ago.
As to our clerical and indoor work, that is amply
provided for, leaving the Inspectors quite free to devote
their whole time to the inspection and improvement of
their different districts; the names and responsibilities
of the clerical staff are as follows:—
GRADING AND DUTIES OF CLERICAL STAFF.
Chief Clerk.—Mr. E. Q. Bilham.
This Officer is a qualified Sanitary Inspector'
having passed the examinations of the Sanitary
Inspectors' Examination Board.
He performs the following duties:—
(a) Attends all meetings of the Public Health Committee
and keeps the Minutes of the Committee.
