Notes

  1. 1.

    The figure of £1000 for a centre and £500,000 for the country as a whole was based on incomplete costings made in 1943. Even at 1943 costs it should have been multiplied by four or five, to allow for the cost of premises, transport and administration. In 1973 the costs would obviously be very much greater.

  2. 2.

    Derris produces a severe scrotal dermatitis.
