ANNUAL REPORT
OF
THE CHIEF PUBLIC HEAUH INSPECTOR
Public Health Department,
Municipal Offices,
New Maiden.
July, 1964.
To the Mayer, Aldermen and Councillors of
the Borough of Maiden and Coombe.
Lady and Gentlemen,
I have the honour to present my Annual Report on the work of the
Public Health Inspectors during the year 1963.
Staff changes were few during the year under review. Mr. S. S. Lowe
left the service of the Council in March and he was replaced by Mr. J. M. W.
Rands from Woking Urban District Council in July.
The career prospects of members of the staff in the forthcoming
amalgamation with Kingston and Surbiton are uncertain and it is extremely
unsettling for every member of the staff to realise that his or her future
will be affected, but it is fitting to pay tribute to their loyalty in these
circumstances. In particular, I record with appreciation the long service of
the Chief Clerk, Mr0 F» W. W0 Mitchell who has been in the Department for 33
years, Mrs. A. Savage 20 years and Mr. B. LI. Prichard 18 years.
Whilst the report which follows might be regarded as routine and
statistical, it is also a record of co-operation by members of the Department
with residents, managements and workers in a great variety of circumstances.
This is an essential feature of the Council's public health policy and in
these days mere and more of the work of Public Health Inspectors and their
colleagues succeeds because of good public relations.
