to the maximum payment of 5/- per case per attendance, with
an additional 5/- when an anaesthetic is administered, for an experimental

would be kept as would enable a comparison to be made between
the cost proposed by the Ministry of Health and the scale as now

The London County Council also approved the scheme for
dental treatment of tuberculosis patients on the 19th March, 1923
on the same conditions and under the same terms as the Ministry
of Health.
