Mr. Mayor, Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have the honour to present the Annual Report on
the Vital Statistics and the Sanitary condition of the
Borough for the year 1930. According to the instructions
of the Minister of Health this is a survey report
relating to the five years ending in December, 1930.
The section of the report dealing with the Tuberculosis
Dispensary has been written by Dr. P. L. T.
Bennett, that relating to the Maternity and Child
Welfare work by Dr. Ruby Thomson, and the part on
the Analysis of Food and Drugs by Mr. C. H. Cribb.
Staff Changes. Several resignations occurred
among the members of the staff during the year and
new appointments were made in consequence.
Mr. J. Rowbotham who was appointed Housing
Inspector in August, 1929 and District Inspector on the
death of Mr. C. B. Lloyd, resigned his appointment as
from 13th November, 1930, having secured a post as
Inspector under the Wandsworth Borough Council.
Upon the resignation of Mr. Rowbotham, Mr. A. S.
Jones, who had been acting in a temporary capacity
owing to the illness of one of the permanent inspectors,
was appointed to the vacancy.
