Details of Report

The report and estimates were seconded by Mr. Wong Kwong-tin, and passed. The report is ns follows:

In accordance with the Board's resolution of April 2, 1929, we have considered the Estimates for 1930 and now submit the following re- commendations:

We recommend that two addi- tional Inspectors be approved, one for the Peak District (which has not now an Inspector to itself) aud the second for a new health district in Victoria which is necessitated by a redistribution of corttain areas. We suggest that one of the new posts should be First Class and the other Second Class.

Two new Interpreters (Class VI of the Junior Clerical Service) will be required for these Inspectors. One-more Class VI Clerk is also required for the Central District Office.

We recommend that the post of one Grade 1 Foreman should be converted to the; post of Overseer in order to afford promotion to a deserving officer,

We recommend that the number of sextons may be safely reduced from 45 to 30.
