Notification of Tuberculosis.
As in previous years I have not experienced any
delay in the notification of this disease, and therefore
there has been no necessity to take any action.
Public Health (Prevention of Tuberculosis) Regulations,
1925.
No occasion has arisen for action to be taken under
these Regulations, there having been no cases of Tuberculosis
amongst the employees in the milk trade in this
district.
