Labour Saving At Grey Hospital
(SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT) WELLINGTON, This Day.— Reminiscent of the recent debate in which the Minister of Health, Miss Howard, offered to polish the floors at the Opunake Hospital, a question asked by Mr E. B. Corbett (Opposition, Egmont) in the House of Representatives this afternoon can be expected to raise an interesting debate when Ministerial replies are circulated. Mr Corbett asked whether the Minister’s attention had been drawn to a report in the Greymouth Evening Star of August 10, which “states that the purchase of five washing machines for the Old People’s Home and the Grey Hospital, approved for inclusion in the estimates, was vetoed by the Health Department. Will the Minister state whether this refusal is a departmental one or a policy ruling?”
