Public Health Department,
Town Hall, N.15.
To The Mayor
Aldermen and Councillors
of the Borough of Tottenham
Mr. Mayor, Ladies and Gentlemen,
I submit herewith my Annual Report for the year 1964.
which must be incomplete owing to necessity to publish it
before 31 st March, 1965, after which time the Borough of
Tottenham ceases to exist on merger with Hornsey and Wood
Green into the Greater London Borough of Haringey (London
Government Act, 1963).
Omission of certain statistics and commentary arises
from the fact that the Registrar Generals' figures for the
year 1964 will not have been received. Also excluded this
year is detailed reference to the personal and school health
services, due to the time factor and pressure of work by
all concerned in the transfer arrangements.
As this will be my last Report before retirement I
take the opportunity to thank members and staff of the
Corporation for much encouragement and assistance given
me during the nearly thirty years I have been privileged
to work in Tottenham as Medical Officer of Health.
G. HAMILTON HOGBEN
Medical Officer of Health
10th March, 1965.
