HOSPITAL RATING
NATIONAL PARTY’S POLICY
PEGGED AT 1937-38 LEVEL
“Hospital rating is a thing which has caused great uneasiness throughout the Dominion” said Mr W. Sullivan in the course of his address last Tuesday night. “The National Party has a policy which will wipe out the present system altogether and stabilise the rate at the 1937-38 level. The balance will be met out of the Consolidated Fund. I know that this will interest our Mayor and the other local bodies which have been prevented from carrying out other major works on account of the increasing size of the Hospital Rate Levy. It became so intolerable in Manganui that the County refused to pay it, and I don’t blame them.”
