Abstract

The birth of the Bulletin The year 1990 was a landmark for public health in New South Wales (NSW). The Public Health Division at the then NSWDepartment of Health was in its infancy, having been formed at the end of 1989, and funding for a program to enhance public health in NSW led to the establishment of a network of Public Health Units and the NSW Public HealthOfficer Training Program. TheNSWPublicHealth Bulletin was established in May 1990 to disseminate accurate and timely information among this newly formed public health network and to provide regular feedback to practitioners on notifiable conditions. It was hoped that the Bulletin would assist in ‘‘the development of a vibrant public health network in NSW’’, and ‘‘provide a useful mechanism for exchange of information and ideas on investigations, programs, and evaluations that (may) affect the health of the citizens of NSW’’.
