FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS

13.1

The implementation of the proposals described in this White Paper will involve major capital expenditure and, on completion of the various projects, heavy additional

recurrent cost. Clearly it is possible to do no more than estimate the total expenditure tentatively at this stage. However, it is calculated that the capital expenditure, which includes construction, furniture, equipment and related quarters, for those medical and health development items which are already in the Public Works Programme, and for the additional items proposed in this White Paper, would be about $914 m. at mid-1974 prices.

It is expected that, on the completion of all these projects, the annually recurrent costs (including subventions) of the Medical and Health Services would

increase from $460 m. in 1974/75 to about $900 m. at
