The milk shops have always been inspected regularly, and found
clean and in good sanitary condition, and all the necessary alterations
and improvements have been carried out.
SANITARY INSPECTOR'S REPORT.
Tht late Sanitary Inspector, Mr. Simmons, was appointed, early
in the year, Surveyor to our District, and Mr. A. W. Hobbs, from
the Epsom Rural District, succeeded him as Sanitary Inspector.
It speaks well for the selection of these candidates by the Council,
that although these gentlemen were not qualified when appointed,
they subsequently both succeeded in obtaining the necessary
qualifications.
I have assisted Mr. Hobbs in the inspection of various houses
and drainage.
I herewith append their detailed Report of the Sanitary improvements
carried out during his own and Mr. Simmons' regime, from
which I feel satisfied Mr. Hobbs will prove himself a zealous and
efficient officer to the Council.
I have the honour to be,
Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen,
Yours faithfully,
RASHELL DAVISON,
m.d., m.r.c.s., eng.,
Medical Officer of Health..
