The rooms provided for the Health Department in the new Council House
are a great improvement on the very limited space it had at its disposal before,
and have enabled the note keeping and ordinary office work to be done under
far better and more convenient conditions, but the permanent branch-oflice at
Isleworth is still waiting for the completion of the alterations to the Public Hall
in that town.
There has been no change in the staff of the Department. Mr. Smith, the
Inspector of Nuisances, and the two Assistant Sanitary Inspectors, Mr. Boberts
and Mr. Ashworth, have carried out their duties most ably and efficiently. The
amount of work done by them during the year is a record of their energy, and
the absence of friction, and small number of the legal proceedings that have
been necessary, are proofs of the tact with which it has been exercised.
In conclusion I wish to express my thanks to the Chairman and members
of the Health Committee. The Chairman's experience and knowledge of
public health administration, and the keen interest of the Committee generally
in all the matters I have brought before them have been of very great assistance
to my colleagues and myself.
I am, Gentlemen,
Your obedient servant,
EDWARD J. STEEGMANN.
