BOROUGH OF ROMFORD
To His Worship The Mayor, Aldermen, and Councillors of the Borough
of Romford.
Mr. Mayor, Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have the honour, herewith, to present to you, this, my Annual
Report on the Health of the District for the year 1954.
This is the Twenty-first Report in the series, since I was appointed
your Medical Officer of Health, and it is drawn up in accordance with
the requirements of Article 17 (5) of the Sanitary Officers' (Outside
London) Regulations, 1935, and with Circular No. 28/54 of the Ministry
of Health, dated 15th December, 1954.
The position I hold is that of Medical Officer of Health for the
Borough, and Area Medical Officer for the Romford Area of the Essex
County Council. So far as this Report is concerned, it deals with my
duties in both capacities.
My thanks are again gratefully tendered to all members of the
Borough Council, and the Health Area Sub-Committee; to the members
of my staff; and to my fellow officials for all the assistance they have
rendered to me, in the compilation of this report, or in dealing with
routine matters, and in the launching of new schemes.
I am,
Mr. Mayor, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
JAMES B. SAMSON,
Medical Officer of Health.
Public Health Department,
Town Hall, Romford.
May, 1955.
