An attempt is made to see that every General Practitioner in
the District receives a report of specimens he has sent in at about
10 o'clock the next morning after the specimens are received.
I consider the laboratory service of the Council to be of the
utmost importance and I am satisfied that it is reasonably wellequipped
and maintained.

respect of the following:—
Nuisances;
