London County Council Some of these have lost much of their
personal touch and their co-ordination with the services still administered
by your council has been difficult. These effects have
been generally appreciated and discussions have been taking place
regarding their return to the Borough Council. I am convinced that
by this a more comprehensive preventive health service enjoying the
confidence of the public, their representatives on your council and
the general practitioners in the district could be developed which
would eventually lead to Better Health for all.
It is with pleasure that I thank you Mr Mayor and the chairman
and members of the Health and other Committees of the Council and
their predecessors during the period under review for the continued
friendly and generous support they have given me in carrying out my
duties, And finally, I wish to thank my staff, including many who
have now left, for their loyal help and co-operation and without which
little would have been accomplished
I have the honour to be
Your obedient Servant,
C.O.S. BLYTH BROOKE
Medical Officer of Health.
