At the same time his course is defensible, as the Chamber might fairly claim a right to call the attention of the Government to the grave infory [that had been done the Colony and Its trade by defects in Sanitary Legislation and Administra tion generally, The question bas, however, consed to be a general can, and the Bill now before the Legislative Connell is simply one for the reorganisation of the Sanitary Board and as to the number and class of members by whom illa to be composed.
the cause for the Commitice to adopt will be I humbly subrult for your consideration that

As to the suggestion that you should report an the oplatons and actions of the Briush members of the Chamber that of course is impossible,, 11 you can only speak for the Association as a whole, foreigners and British alike.
