"If those plans have to be implemented," Dr. Choa said, "expectant

mothers may have to wke a longer journey to the hospital to which they

will be directed. My staff will make every effort to direct them to

"If this advice is followed, these plans will enable the maternity

service to carry on without undue inconvenience to expectant mothers."
