There is no reason to believe that there is any wilful neglect to notify. The omission to do is generally due to an oversight. The ratio of non-notified tuberculosis deaths to the total tuber- culosis deaths was 1 : 9. In accordance with the requirements of the Ministry of Health, quarterly statements are sent to the County Medical Officer of Health.'
