I understand the Water Board have in contemplation a
scheme which, if carried out, will give a good supply at all
times to all portions of the District.
House Refuse generally is collected weekly by the Staff
of the Surveyor's Department, except during the summer
months, when a daily collection is made at Queen Alexandra's
Court and several blocks of flats.
Since May last a daily collection has been in operation
in all roads on the east side of Haydons Road as an
experiment.
During the year 8,729 loads were disposed of at the
Refuse Destructor.
The appended report of the Sanitary Inspector contains
a detailed record of the work carried out by the Staff of the
Sanitary Department under his supervision, and I am glad
to acknowledge his able and ever ready assistance on all
occasions, as also the good work of the Assistant Inspectors.
Mr. Johnson's duties, which are often of a most difficult
and delicate nature, are carried out by him with great
ability and tact, and the energy displayed by him in the
public's interest at all times is too well known to be dwelt
upon by me.
I have the honour to be,
Your obedient Servant,
E. POCKLINGTON,
Medical Officer of Health.
