§ 60. Mr. GRUNDYasked the Minister of Health whether, in view of the fact that the Sanitary Officers Order, 1922, contains no Regulations securing the training of those officers, he will state how the revision of qualifications required by the Ministry of Health provides for such training?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINThe Sanitary Officers Order, 1922, requires, subject to a dispensing power, that every sanitary inspector appointed under that Order shall be the holder of a certificate of the Royal Sanitary Institute or the Sanitary Inspector's Examination Board. Whereas no qualification had previously been prescribed by the central authority for sanitary inspectors except in London, it is now necessary, as a condition of my sanction to the appointment of a sanitary inspector outside London, for the candidate selected to have undergone such training as enabled him to obtain one of the prescribed certificates.
