Further good progress was made during the year towards the
establishment of Smoke Control Areas throughout the Borough under the
Clean Air Act 1956.
In conclusion, I should like to take this opportunity of expressing
to the Chairman and Members of the Health Committee my appreciation for
the consideration and courtesy which they have shown to me during the year.
My thanks are also due to all members of the staff of the Health
Department for the loyal and efficient way in which they have carried
out their duties. I would like to thank Mr. Cockell, the Chief Public
Health Inspector, and Mr. Richardson, my Chief Clerk, for their
contribution in connection with the preparation of this Report.
I am also indebted to my colleagues in other Departments for their
ready help on all occasions.
I have the honour to be
Your obedient Servant,
P.J. DOODY
Medical Officer of Health
