HOSPITAL FINANCE
TE KUITI PROTEST (Special to Times) TE KUITI, Friday As a protest against ratepayers having to bear an ever-increasing and intolerable burden in respect of the financing of hospitals, the Te Kuiti Borough Council decided to withhold approval of the raising of £2500 for what were described by the Waikato Hospital Board as urgently required additions to the Rotorua Hospital. The council did not wish to imply that these additions were not warranted. its sole prompting being -that it considered that the financing of hospitals should not be the particular burden of the ratepayers, but should be the responsibility of the Social Security Department.
