CONFIDENTIAL

(a) Consultants' Report on "The Delivery of

Medical Services in Hospitals"

The Medical & Health Department

has so far received 19 submissions from staff groups on the report. The majority are of the view that the provision of medical services should remain Government's responsibility and that the proposed Hospital Authority should not be separated from the civil service framework. They are also of the opinion that there should be a second round of staff and public consultation as soon as the Administration has firmed up its proposals.
