It is much to be regretted that some of the Inspectors have so demeaned themselves as to accept bribes but why the whole of the staff should be stigmatised in this way is most unjust.

There are 35 Sanitary Inspectors. Of these 5 were found guilty of corrupt practices and dismissed, while 1 was transferred to another Department; the cases of 8 others were inquired into and the Commissioners reported that in their opinion the charges had not been proved. No charges whatever were made against the remainder.
