HOSPITAL BOARDS.
PROPOSAL BY LOCAL BODIES. Per Press Association. Wellington, Thursday. At a conference of the local bodies contributing to the Wellington Hospital and Charitable Aid Board proposals were agreed to regarding the increased levies. Included in the proposals are the following:—That the Mayor or chairman of each local body contributing to the board be ex officio a member and that the number of elective members be reduced proportionately ; that estimates of the levies every yefir be first submitted to the local authority for consideration; that the practice in force prior to the Act of 1909 regarding patients in sanatoria should again be followed, making the cost of indigent admitted to the particular institution a charge against the institution itself and not against the Hospital and Charitable Aid Board; that the cost of treatment of Natives should be provided as formerly from the Civil List; that hospital privileges be confined to persons of limited incomes, and patients who desire to escape payment shall make a declaration as to their means.
