In some committees the members appointed by the County or County Borough Councils really form the only section with much experience of public administration.” He adds: ‘They really have so little to do except disciplinary ‘work, which is mostly done by the Medical Service Sub-Committee. On the other hand, if you give them more work to do, say, an extension of their general health duties, you bring them into competition with the other local health authorities ” (Q. 23,975). We may quote also the following question and answers : “Do you consider that the Insurance Committees perform an essential service in regard to the benefits of deposit contributors that could not be otherwise arranged for?”’—(Sir Walter Kinnear) : * No.”> (Mr. Brock) : ** 1 agree with Sir Walter *’ (Q. 23,982). ¢“ The position is very much the same with regard to the Navy and Army Insurance Fund.” (Kinnear ; ). 23.985). “ We think a transfer of the powers and duties of Insurance Committees to the appropriate committees of the County and County Borough Councils would have the great advantage of being a step towards the co-ordination of all local health functions which is generally recognised as the logical corollary of the co-ordination of central health functions in the Ministry of Health.
