Langtons,
Billet Lane,
Hornchurch.
11th May, 1934.
To the Chairman and Members of the Hornchurch
Urban District Council.
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have the honour to present for your consideration my
Annual Report for the year ended 31st December, 1933, which
is submitted in accordance with the requirements of Article
14 (3) of the Sanitary Officers' Order, 1926, which provides that
a Medical Officer of Health, in respect of the District for which
he is appointed, shall make an Annual Report to the Local
Authority up to end of the December, on the sanitary circumstances,
sanitary administration, and the vital statistics of the District.
Building development still continues at a rapid pace and
attracts a large number of new inhabitants into the District.
A much greater increase both in population and acreage
of the District is foreshadowed by the decision of the Essex
County Council in its Review Order, which had not received the
final assent of the Ministry of Health at the end of the year.
ALFRED BALL, m.d., d.p.ii.,
Medical Officer of Health.
