HOSPITAL SUBSIDIES
AMENDMENT TO BILL MINIMUM OF 14 - IN £ (THE SUNS Parliamentary Reporter) WELLINGTON, Wednesday. When the Hospital and Charitable Institutions Amendment came on in the House of Representatives, the Minister of Health, the Hon. J. A. Young, explained that, apart from machinery clauses and one giving hospital boards the right to sell unclaimed personal property after due lapse of time, the most important provision was the one relating to subsidy. It had never been intended that the rate of subsidy should be less than 14s in the £. and the purpose of tlie amendment was to see that, in making refunds on account of overpayments, no board should be required to encroach on that margin. Mr. H. E. Holland, in saying that the Government should look into the question of paying more liberal subsidies to hospital boards, said that it was wrong that a measure so important should come on so late in the session. The Minister said that all hospital boards concurred in the proposed amendment. The Bill was put through all stages.
