Tottenham.
March, 1922.
To the Members of the Tottenham Urban District Council,
Tottenham Education Committee and Tottenham Maternity
and Child Welfare Committee.
Ladies and Gentlemen,
The Ministry of Health have issued instructions that for the year 1921
Medical Officers' Annual Reports shall be mainly in statistical form, and that
at five yearly periods only shall they be required to review in detail the
sanitary conditions of the district.
The School Medical Report and Maternity and Child Welfare Report,
which are incorporated herewith, are, in conformity with the Health Report,
for the most part in tabular form.
The Medical Officer of Health expresses his thanks to the Health
Committee, to the Canteen and General Cares Committee and the Maternity
and Child Welfare Committee for their uniform courtesy and consideration.
The staffs of the various Committees have fulfilled their duties during the
year with unswerving loyalty.
I am, Ladies and Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,
David Kirkhone.
