In the report of the Chief Public Health Inspector it will be
seen that the work of the Department continues to increase.
In conclusion, I would again like to record my appreciation
to the Chairman and Members of the Public Health Committee
for their help and co-operation during the year, and to the staff
of the Department for their continued enthusiasm and loyalty.
