TABLE III.
TREATMENT TABLES.
NOTES
(a) The Tables should deal with all defects treated, or under treatment,
during the year, however they were brought to the
Authority's notice, i.e. whether by periodic inspection, special
inspection, or otherwise, during the year in question or previously.
(b) Owing to the difficulty of distinguishing between cases treated
under the Authority's schemes and those treated otherwise, the
treatment tables (excluding dental) should include all cases
known to the Authority to have received treatment, whether at
their own clinics or elsewhere.

Table: Group I. : MINOR AILMENTS (excluding Uncleanliness, for whichsee Table V).
