QUESTION.
5. The Hon. Sir HENRY EDWARD POLLOCK, Kt., K.C., LL.D., pursuant to notice,
asked the following question:-
Has the Government any statement to make as to the financial position of the
Tung Wab and allied Hospitals?
The Colonial Secretary replied as follows:-
The question of increased financial assistance to the Tung Wah and associated Hospitals has been under consideration for a considerable time. It came to a head early in 1938 when the Tung Wah Committee approached the Government with a request for a grant to cover the deficit shown on the working for the year 1937 equal to approximately $150,000. As the result of discussions which followed, certain important steps have been agreed for the improvement of the financial control of the hospitals. In particular it has been agreed that :-
(a) The committee shall prepare and adhere to a proper annual budget and shall submit annual accounts audited by an auditor approved by the Government.
(b) The annual budget shall be approved by the Permanent
Advisory Committee already established.
