Report on reasons for giving of one month's notice to City Health Officer, 1888

Description

Unique IDA-00433937SeriesCommittee Reports (Various committees), 1842-1899Date14th August 1888Date qualifierexactFormatVolume - Leather BoundDescriptionReport of the Mayor, John Harris, on his reasons for giving of one month's notice to Dr Dansey, City Health Officer, WH Watkins Assistant Inspector of Nuisances, and HH Smithers Clerk of Works. The Mayor pointed out that the transfer of the Council's Water Department to the Metropolitan Water and Sewerage Board has caused a lessening of duties in the City Treasurer's and Town Clerk's Departments. The Mayor was of the opinion that the position of Health Officer was a sinecure (and Dansey had failed to detail any duties performed in the role) and although Wilkins and Smithers were 'old servants of the Council', in their absence because of illness (about one third of the time), their duties were satisfactorily performed by other officers.
