PMM 313. "Nominally the work of the Commissioners, the Report was in fact drawn up by Chadwick; and it is one of the most important documents in the history of the first half of the nineteenth century. Its recommendations included for the first time national responsibility for drainage, cleaning the streets, paving, light, and water supply, and a national health and burial service. The Health Boards of 1848, the Local Government Board of 1871 and today's Ministry of Health are all directly traceable to Chadwick's report."
