Description | Notifications repeatedly sent by the office of mutasarrifate to consulates stipulate that they must send a register showing the amount of deaths and type of illnesses occurring in hospitals under their administration, at the end of each month. Nonetheless, it is known that the hospitals specified in the enclosed note have not sent the registers in question, including the period from this year’s March up to the present, and that this leads to a delay in sending the public register to be presented to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Hence, it is appropriate to re-notify the consulates of the said hospitals that the three month’s registers be sent at once and henceforth a register be regularly sent at the end of every month. The 6th of Huzayrân (1)317 (19th of June 1901). [3 signatures] |
