In the proposed scheme because naturally the terms of their present agreements must be adhered to, but by degrees, as new nurses are got out under the new form of agreement, eventually a sufficient number of the Government Nursing Staff would be available for nursing in private houses; they would all then be able to take turn and turn about and so obtain a proportion of Hospital work, the lack of which is such an important factor in the failure of the present Institution to retain nurses in their posts.

I remain etc.,
