CHAPTER V.
ADMINISTRATION, STAFF.
During the year your medical officers have acted professionally
for the Council, performing 47 clinical medical examinations of actual
or potential staff and have provided a number of special reports to
the various Committees of the Council. This activity helps in the
provision of a medically sound personnel for all activities of the
Council and enables special consideration to be given to any unusual
case of sickness, thereby maintaining a standard of efficiency
impossible without such a service.
I am proud to record the loyalty and diligence displayed in the
work of the Department, and I take this opportunity of thanking the
whole staff for another year of conscientious effort.
I would conclude by an expression of appreciation to all members
of the Council, especially those who serve on the Health Committee
and particularly the Chairman, for the admirable way in which they
have directed the policy of the Department during the year.
I have the honour to be, Mr. Mayor, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
E. GRUNDY,
Medical Officer of Health.
