Norman Bastable - Chief Public Health Inspector
On the 31st August, 1962 Norman Bastable, Chief Public Health Inspector
since September 1925 retired from local government service, thus terminating a
career of over 50 years duration in the field of public health administration.
During his service with Barking Council, Mr. Bastable was able to apply his
diligence, perseverance and considerable ability in the performance of his duties
to the betterment of the everyday affairs for many of the residents in the Borough.
Mr. Bastable's capabilities as a Chief Public Health Inspector were recognised
outside Barking by his election to many National Bodies associated with
the promotion of health, hygiene and dealing with the problems of atmospheric
pollution, where his contribution in the form of written technical papers, open
discussion and on administrative committees has had a profound impact and
effect on environmental problems generally.
