Chairman and Gentlemen, I have the honour to submit my .Annual Report for the year 1966 in accordance with Article 15(4) and (5) of the Public Health Officers Regulations 1959j and Circular 1/67 of the Ministry of Health. During 1966 the health of the population of the Urban District was good. The number of live births was greater than in the previous year but there was an increase in the number of deaths. The incidence of acute infectious disease was very low. The Report contains a meteorological report kindly supplied by Mr. P.J. Parsons, M.B.3., Meteorologist-in-Charge, County Observatory, Ross-on-Wye, giving a record of climatic conditions during the year. In the preparation of this Report, I acknowledge assistance from Mr. E. Moses, Clerk to the Council* and Mr. R.H. Shaw Batchford, Public Health Inspector. I take this opportunity of thanking the Council for the support which has been given me in the discharge of my duties throughout the year.
