7.-VACCINATION.
Under the Vaccination Ordinance, No. 12 of 1923, all Public Vaccinators are under the control of the Director of Medical and Sanitary Services, who is the Superintendent of Vaccination. As Registrar of Births, the Head of the Sanitary Department is responsible for ensuring the vaccination of all children whose births are registered, and Appendix A shows the results of action so taken.
8. SCAVENGING.
268.26 tons of refuse were collected daily from the City of Victoria, Hill Districts, Quarry Bay, Shaukiwan, Stanley, Repulse Bay, Pokfulam and Kowloon Peninsula including Kowloon City and Kowloon Tong, and removed to the various refuse depots.
The cost of the service in Hong Kong (including Stanley and Repulse Bay) and Kowloon is shown in Appendix B (i) and B (ia) attached. Table (iii) shows a comparison with last year.
There are now 16 refuse-lorries in use, 11 being used in Hong Kong and 5 in Kowloon.
Aberdeen, Pokfulam, Stanley and Ap Lei Chau are now scavenged departmentally (cost included in Appendix B (i)), incinerators having been built for the disposal of refuse from this area.
Refuse from Stanley, Repulse Bay and Pokfulam is conveyed to the refuse depot at Kennedy Town by lorry.
It should be noted that the difference in the amount of refuse received at the depots (432 tons per day) and the amount collected by lorry, is due to a large quantity of refuse taken to the depots by private firms and individuals; also the quantity shown as having been removed by barge is approximate only.
