The new Authority will be supported by a Hospital Services Department as its executive arm. In
addition, a Department of Health will be created within
the Government to focus on the promotion of public health
and preventive medical care. An early task for the Authority will be to look into ways in which a set of
common terms and conditions of service can be established
for all staff working under the Hospital Authority. In
the course of the next few months, further consultations
on these matters will be held with staff and with the
subvented organisations affected.

This important new initiative demonstrates the Government's firm determination and commitment to improve medical and health services. We intend to continue to
provide subsidised medical services to one and all. То do this we need to have an organisational structure which
will be more efficient, effective and responsive. When
the new proposals are presented to this Council, I hope that they will commend themselves to Members.
