Yes; according as the output of the training programme permits. The intake of student health inspectors was increased from 20 to 30 both in 1977 and in 1978. It is intended that this annual intake of students will be maintained over the next few years when the number of health inspectors will have reached the target recommended by the Health Inspectors Training Board.
