THE COMMISSION.

(Continued from page 3) 283. We are of opinion that the Board must bare full power to order and direct the officera and corrants to ourry out their orders, which orders should pass through the hands of the Secretary, whose duty it should be to see them carried out.

284. ΣΕ appears to the Commissioners that considerable laxity

has existed in the past as to the smount of supervision giren to the eubordinate members of the Stuff more parti. cularly with regard to outdoor staff.

There does not appear to ince been any particular rate laid down and it has been left 10 the individual Medical Officer of Hoal to act in this matter as he considered how.

1300. Attached to this Report will be found t

brief history of Savitary Administration in the Colony, drawn up by one of the Members of the Comalssion.

The Commissioners onasider that in order fali and fitting consideration be given to the recommendations we now submit to Your Excellency with a view to placing the working of the Banitary and Building Regulations in this Colony un a more satisfactory basis, that the history of the Sanitary movement in Hongkong should be understood.

301. The compilation of this memorandum has takou

285. While kolding the position of Melient Oficer of Health, Fr. Poarse sppears to have devoted a considerable portion of his time, as much as mild heapered from his other duties. to personal supervision of the work done by the Inspectore. On the other hand, are bave it on Dr. Atkinson's own evidence that up recent date Dr Clark na Medical Heer of Health rarely left his office, practically giving he wen to gradually give the ratepayers of Banking and Exchange business, receives little or no supervision to the work of his

subordinates.

|

32. The Report speaks for itself, but the chief point le which we would draw the attention of Your Excellency is that while the existing Ordinanca as amended by No. 23 of 1903 has placed the whole control of the Administration of the Sanitary Department in the hands of the Principal Civil Medical Officer, roducing the Sanitary Bourd to something even less than a Consulting Committee, the general tendency of legislation for years past of Hongkong an increasing say in Municipal matters, thus in a manner compensating for the fact that under the role of a Crown Colony they are practically in the hands of the Govern ment. A representatives of His Majesty, through the Secretary of State.

986. We understand that this state of affairs has to a certain extent since her lifed, but the fact remains that the orcessise powers given to the Inspectors, coupled with issu hoient aupervision, resalted in considerable writy ou the part of the Inspectors as to the exention of their duties, and is responsible in a grow measure for the corruption which exists.

297. Evidence bas been given to the offect that some of the Inspectors taking advantage of the position are absent fram their posts ut a time when they should be on duty, while an questionably a considerable amount of corrapuncficial Members of the Sanitary Board. tion which ve freely obtained, at all events up to the date of the appointment of the Com mission, could only have existed through what of more through supervision by the senior officials of the Department.

33. This principle of a very modified form of self verument was suctioned many years ago by the then Secretary of State for the Colouis, and up to the present date no doubt mony of the ratepayers in the Colony beliers that they still are represented in what is the Maricipal Government of Hongkong by the

2 Al the time of the appointment of this Commission, it was frequently stated that the Senior Officials in the Sanitary Department strenuously denied the existenes of any general corruption amongst their sabordinates, though admitting a few ruch cases might possibly be found amongst the native section of the staff.

Several of the shore were unquestionably implicated in esses of bribery, others are under Puspicion, and the rest no doubt had similar reasons for removing themselves from the Jurisdiction of the Hongkong Courts.

092. As already-stated, further caves bribery or bluckmailing have been brought before as, which time alone does not permit of our investigating, but we might mention that in the course of our investigations, it transpired that the senior Chinese, Borgaaut of the Water Police had been in the habit of demanding blackmail from the scavenging contractor. This man has since absconded.

Attached to this Report will be found a list of those officists of the Sanitary Department who hare beau referred to in the evidence taken by the Commission.

We now know from eridence giren before the Commission that this belief is entirely illusory.

304. The Pessident of the Sanitary Board claims that be is the sola bead of the Papert ment within the term of Ordinance 23 of 19903, and that it is only in certain comparatively small matters or as a matter of courtony, that he consults the Board as to the working of the Department, or even keeps then informed as to what is taking place in the Department. Ali matters relating to finance, the control, appoint ments, promotions, &c., of the staff, conduct of business hetween the Board Meetings, and the ordering of tao daily work of the Department being outside the jurisdiction of the Sanitary

Board.

36. Under the Amending Ordinanon, the Members of the Commission do not dispute the correctness of the attitude taken up by the Principal Civil Medical Offeer. They feel it however their duty to point out that not only has such a change been brought about without the public being clearly informed as to what the real resuit of the passing of this Amending Ordinance would be by which they were practi cally defranchi ed from sach sharò as bag bean enjoyed for tears past in the Municipal Gover ment of the Colony, but further that the result of this new legislation has not carried out the anticipation of the promoters, or by an im proved service justified its inception,
