I am satisfied that existing arrangements for co-ordination of the activities of the Departments of Health and Local Government are adequate. In addition to such ad hoc meetings as are arranged to discuss specific problems, there is also in existence an Inter-Departmental Committee on Social Work Affairs on which both Departments are represented and, in the circumstances, further action on my part does not appear to be required.
