Abstract
THE Minister of Health has directed the attention of local authorities for the necessity of cleanliness in swimming pools (Circular 1503. London: H.M. Stationery Office, price Id.). The circular emphasises the opportunity which the winter months offer for ensuring a proper standard in swimming baths and pools. The requisite degree of purity can best be maintained by efficient continuous filtration and continuous controlled chlorination. The recommendations apply to all baths and pools open to the public, whether publicly or privately owned, for local authorities, under the Public Health Act, 1875, have power of control over privately owned pools used by the public.
