BOARD OF HEALTH.
At a meeting of the Board of Health to-day, it was resolved that Dr Brown be requested te visit the Quarantine Island on behalf of the Board of Health, accompanied by Captain Thomson, Dr Drysdale, and Mr Allan, and to order the removal to the small island of such immigrants as he (Dr Brown) shall deem expedient. Also, that as the Board’s instructions do not appear to have been rigidly adhered to as respects complete isolation of the healthy immigrants from the hospital patients, Dr Edwards, surgeon of the ship Oamaru, be requested to take charge of the large island ; and that the keeper (Dugald) be reprimanded for not having seen to it that the Board’s instructions were more completely carried out. A letter was received from the Mornington District Health Board relative to the removal of the slaughteryard, and it was resolved that the Board be informed that it possesses ample power to meet the case under the provisions of the Public Health Act
