REPORT
of the
SANITARY INSPECTOR
FOR THE YEAR 1904.
Sanitary Department,
Town Hall, Edmonton.
To the Chairman and Members of
The Edmonton Urban District Council.
Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen,
I have the honour to present to you my report on the work done
in the Sanitary Department for the year 1904.
During the year under report one or two small enactments have
been placed on the Statute book, by the past Session of Parliament,
which are directly connected with Public Health work, viz.:—
The Public Health Act, 1904 (4 Edw. VII., chap. 16). This is
strictly a one-clause Act, to enable regulations to be made for
carrying into effect conventions with respect to the prevention of
danger arising to Public Health from vessels, and the prevention of
the conveyance of infection by means of vessels, etc.
