The Commissioner issued a questionnaire and directed the Collector, Chingleput to have an inquiry held as regards the suitability of the applicants for the grant of a licence.
The learned single Judge rejected the contention of Messrs Chingleput Bottlers that the Commissioner had acted in breach of the rules of natural justice by his failure to furnish the report of the Collector observing that nothing precluded them from seeking perusal of the records; nor did they make a demand for it.
Further, the Commissioner had wrongly assumed that Messrs Chingleput Bottlers and given their address as 'Ramabadran, c/o Messrs Three Star Bottling Company, Iyanchery' when no such address was ever furnished and therefore the impugned order is vitiated by an error apparent on the face of the record.

The Chingleput trials were started in July 1968 and the vaccine/placebo intake phase was completed in March 1971.
The Chingleput trials, however, used both the strains among the study population so that any intrinsic strain-dependent disparity in the protective efficacy of the vaccine does not affect the results.
Since the Chingleput trials did include children, it is unclear why the efficacy of BCG against childhood forms of TB was not simultaneously investigated.

 International Notes Tuberculosis and Leprosy Control in Developing Countries
A study of the infection risks, the incidence and prevalence of tuberculosis, and the outcome of disease in terms of continued infectivity and death, at different ages in both sexes, should help in understanding the pathogenesis of tuberculosis in the area.
Virulence of the organisms isolated in the Chingleput trial should be determined experimentally and, if possible, in vitro to enable the pathogenesis of tuberculosis in the area to be studied further.
Smear-positive cases are the principal sources of infection in the community, and their rapid and lasting cure by effective and inexpensive forms of short-course chemotherapy will contribute not only to a better outcome for those patients, but also to some reduction in the risk of infection, by cutting short the duration of smear-positivity.
