%X The 1991 Public Health Act considerably reduced the number of doctor notifiable conditions in NSW and there has subsequently been a measurable increase in rates of reporting. Hospital Accident and Emergency (A&amp;E) departments however pose a particular problem. Medical staff working in A&amp;E departments are frequently Resident Medical Officers on short-term rotational attachments. It might be predicted that there would be fewer notifications from them than from more experienced practitioners.
