The general work of sanitation, of the prevention of
nuisances and of the protection of food was carried out
efficiently under the direction of the Chief Sanitary inspector
(Mr, C.W. Newbery) who has constantly maintained a high standard
of service. I wish to express my appreciation to him and to the
staff of the department.
The water supply of the district reached a high degree of
chemical and bacteriological purity. Effective control by dally
sampling and by chlorlnation was continued.
I thank the members of the Council for their advice and
help during the year and I am grateful to the officers of the
Council for their co-operation.
I am,
Mr. Mayor, Ladles and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
ENEAS J. MACINTYRE
Medical Officer of Health.
