REPORTS
No. 19.—Petition of A. Sainsbury and Others, of Otahuhu, Auckland Praying for immediate provision of small recovery homes for treatment of cases of nervous breakdown. I have the honour to report that the Public Health Committee has carefully considered this petition, and has no recommendation to make. The Committee finds that the revised policy and plans now in course of implementation by the Health Department are more practical and will largely meet the requirements of the petitioners. 4th August, 1946.
No. 42.—Petition of Wairakei Ltd., Auckland Praying for compensation and relief in respect of the occupation by the Mental Hospitals Department of the Wairakei Hotel. I have the honour to report that the Committee has carefully considered this petition, and recommends it be referred to the Government for favourable consideration. 24th September, 1946.
I—7
No. 41.—Petition of. J. Y. Wallis and Others, of Marewa, Napier Praying for the provision of a proper and efficient sewerage system at Marewa. I have the honour to report that the Committee has carefully considered this petition, and recommends it be referred to the Government for most favourable and urgent consideration. 26th September, 1946.
No. 56.—Petition of T. M. Brennen and Others Praying that the Government take steps to provide for a reduction in the cost of dentures. I have the honour to report that the Committee has carefully considered this petition, and recommends it be referred to the Government for favourable consideration. 9th October, 1946.
No. 21.—Petition of New Zealand Federated Dental Technicians and Assistants' Industrial Association op Workers Praying for an amendment to the Dentists Act, 1936. I have the honour to report that the Committee has carefully considered this petition, and recommends it be referred to the Government for consideration with a view to utilizing to the best advantage the services of trained dentists and dental technicians. In the view of the Committee it would be unwise to permit dental technicians to undertake the range of prosthetic work claimed by the petitioners. It believes, however, that there is room for a larger measure of co-ordination between these two complementary parts of the dental service. 9th October, 1946.
No. 55.—Petition of T. F. Carey, of 24 Jessel Street, Grey Lynn, Auckland Praying for remission of fees due to the Auckland Hospital Board.

L have the honour to report that, after hearing the medical evidence on the proposal to build a maternity block and additions to the nurses' home at the Timaru Hospital, this Committee is of the opinion that the maternity block should be separate from, but adjacent to, the main hospital. The Committee therefore recommends the petitions be referred, to the Government for consideration. 11th October, 1946. A. E. Armstrong, for Chairman
