Under the 1930 Act, housing occupied a good deal of time
during the year, and eight representations involving 102 houses
were presented to the Council for their consideration. In addition,
at the request of the London County Council your Medical Officer
gave evidence at the Ministry of Health's inquiries concerning the
Lamb Lane and Eastney Street Clearance Areas involving 108
houses.
The Ovorcrowding Survey (1935) was practically completed on
the 31st December, and a summary of the results is incorporated
in the report.
To the Chairman and Members of the Public Health and Maternity
and Child Welfare Committees, I am grateful for the kindness
and consideration they have shewn me on all occasions.
To my colleagues in other departments of the Council I tender
my sincere thanks for assistance at all times willingly rendered.
To every member of the Public Health staff my special thanks
are due for the help they gave to me personally and for the loyalty
they have displayed at all times.
I am,
Mr. Mayor, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
M. Macdonald.
