National Council for Taharas Hamishpochoh in the UK
by Moishe Chaim Elzas

At a recent meeting of the National Council for Taharas Hamishpochoh, Dayan Chaim Ehrentreu proposed that Rabbi J. Z. Dunner take over the chairmanship following the recent petiroh of the Sassover Rebbe zt"l who had headed the Council for many years. This was unanimously adopted and Rabbi Dunner graciously agreed to accept the responsibility.

The well-attended meeting heard a full report from Dayan Gukovitski on his inspections of the various provincial mikvo'os on behalf of the Council. The importance of these regular inspections and certification was stressed and endorsed by all the rabbonim present. Experience has shown that this is the safest and most practical method of ensuring that all mikvo'os are properly and reliably maintained to the best standards of kashrus.

Appreciation was expressed for the methodical and professional way in which these inspections are carried out. The rabbonim of the council undertook to raise the necessary funds to ensure the program would continue and be expanded to meet the needs of the growing number of provincial mikvo'os.
