Cleansing and Disinfecting
The cleansing and disinfection station is sited at the Refuse Disposal
Works, and as well as the disinfecting apparatus itself, baths are provided
for verminous persons who need to be disinfested.
The disinfectors are also responsible for the collections and deliveries
of laundry service for the incontinent aged. This service, which the Council
is enabled to provide under its powers to cleanse articles given by the
Public Health Act, is one that has earned an increasing gratitude from the
public since its inception.
