There is evidence that prolonged exposure to dust can cause harm to the respiratory tract and that certain dusts are more capable of producing damage than others. In most cases there are non-occupational factors which contribute to the final condition, with the result that it is impossible to be sure of the part occupation has played in any particular patient, and in consequence the disease does not qualify for prescription under the Industrial Injuries Act. There is need for further field investigations aimed at identifying with precision the occupational hazards likely to lead to chronic bronchitis.
