47. Mr. Kitson

asked the Minister of Health if he is aware that the allocation for beds in hospitals for the mentally subnormal in the Newcastle Regional Hospital Board's area is disproportionate; and if he will not reorganise the catchment areas for existing beds until additional beds are available in 1970.

Mr. Snow

Yes. The Regional Hospital Board intend to revise certain catchment areas before 1970.
