four sessions per week to the work of the Borough Council and
the remaining seven sessions to the London County Council.

on the repair of houses and work in connection with the granting
of loans for house purchase and grants for improvements, the
Council increased the establishment of public health inspectors
from 12 to 13. To fill the vacancy Mr. A.M. Norton who had
previously been a student inspector from 1st January, 1958 was
appointed.
Mr. D.G. Ring also took the examination and qualified

post as inspector with the Edmonton Borough Council.
