- 2 - 6. continued. Would you add in addition a sum in respect of depreciation on buildings and equipment? (ii) Have you anticipated that all your general ward beds would be required for the service? (In such event, payment of the full cost would provide the whole of the In-patient (and presumably Out-patient) maintenance costs of your Hospital, with the exception of pay beds). (iii) Would you feel that the hospitals could avoid eventual domination by the paying authority? (iv) Would the fact that you were receiving the full cost affect your voluntary income? (v) Would it affect personal interest and voluntary personal service? (vi) If, in your view, it would affect your voluntary income and result in a gradual elimination of subscribers, would this fact involve alterations to your Trust Deed, Charter, or Articles of Association, if the Management of your Hospital, as at present constituted, is vested in the body of Subscribers? 7. In your view, how important is it that, if a way can be found, Contributory Schemes, in some form, should be perpetuated - notwithstanding the Government's declared policy? In the case of this hospital it is felt to be vital that the organisation of the contributory schemes be perpetuated in some form, so as to ensure the liaison with the representatives of the employees in individual concerns. It is considered to be important as regards finance and other matters. 8. The Government does not propose to compel the individual to use the services provided under the scheme. (i) Would you favour an arrangement under which some of your general ward beds were excluded from the service and available for those (other than pay bed patients) not availing themselves of the service bed? No. Quite impracticable. (ii) Would you feel it practicable to assess patients using such beds? No. (contd.)
