An aged man who had been employed by the board, but had been dismissed, wrote to the department making complaints against board members. Tho department appointed an audit inspector to investigate, and his report was made available to the board- to-day, to-. gether with a letter from the Minister of Health completely vindicating the board. The allegations were described as absurd. The board, in the meantime, decided to accept the advice of its solicitors not to take action against the person who made the allegations.
