    To the Department of Health for Scotland, the County Council of Clackmannan and the Town Councils of Alloa, Alva, Tillicoultry and Dollar. Gentlemen, I have the honour to submit to you the Annual Report for the year 1950 upon the Health and Sanitary Condition of the County of Clackmannan end of the Burghs therein. In September Dr, J. A, Roughead departed to a new post, after ten years service as County Medical Officer of Health, His term of office here saw the coming into operation of the National Health Service Act, 1947, and was marked by the considerable expansion and reorientation of the County Health Services, He successfully accomplished this reorganisation with the result that a well functioning service was in being at his departure, In submitting this report I wish to record my appreciation of the sympathetic interest shown by members of County and Town Councils in the work for PubZ'C Health, I would also thank my Predecessor, my Staff and Fellow Officials for their help and willing co-operation. I have the honour to be, Your obedient Servant, J. BORRCWMAN. Medical Officer of Health, Health Department, Bedford Place, Alloa. June, 1951
