Finally may I draw particular attention to the amount of
work covered in the report of the Chief Sanitary Inspector, and
express the opinion that in view of conditions generally the number
of nuisances and sanitary defects needing attention is likely to
increase still further. Although the figures and visits to various
premises re rats shows such a large increase, this does not indicate
an increase in rat infestation.
The work of this department continues to increase both in
amount and importance and I would like express my most sincere
thanks to the members of my staff for their untiring patience and
perseverance throughout the year.
Your obedient Servant,
C. M. SCOTT, m.r.c.s. (Eng.), l.r.c.p. (Lond.),
Medical Officer of Health to the Council and
A/Assistant School Medical Officer.
