Clean Air Act 1956
On the advice of the Health Committee the Council approached surrounding
Boroughs to see whether a liaison could be established to promote linked
plans to work the Act in this region of London, Middlesex and surrey. As a
result, Acton, Barnes, Brentford & Chiswick, Fulham and Willesden joined
Hammersmith, and in my Annual Report for 1958 I propose to list the achievements
of the first year's association of these Authorities.
