Pros and cons of public health officers power

Reference no: EM1337007

I have been asked to discuss the pros and cons of public health officers/ environmental health officer having powers to force people to take action to prevent the spread of communicable diseases. I am to develop a conclusion about the appropriateness of the act and regulation in today's society.

This is due to a civil liberties group expressing concern over the public health act, and communicable disease control regulations. There issue is that the provisions of the legislation are too draconian in the powers granted to public health officials.
