Estimate of Contributions from Central Authorities towards
the Expenditure of the Borough Council on their Dispensary
Scheme.
This estimate is based upon the following statement made by
the Local Government Board in their circular letter of the 19th
December, 1913, page 4, viz.:—
The expenditure of the Borough Council on their Dispensary
scheme after deducting the payment made by the Insurance
Committee in respect of the treatment of insured persons,
and any other contributions, will be met as follows:—
(a) 50 per cent. from the Local Government Board.
(b) 25 per cent. from the London County Council.
(c) 25 per cent. out of rates of the Borough.
Estimated expenditure £2,300 Contribution from Insurance
Committee (about
one-fifth of total) £460
Contribution from Local
Government Board to
remainder of expenditure
920
Contribution from the
London County Council 460
Contribution from local
rates 460
Capital Cost.—No capital charges will arise in connection with
the Victoria Park Hospital Dispensary, but the Capital Cost in
connection with the Metropolitan Hospital Dispensary for alterations
and equipment will probably amount to about £400, of which
four-fifths will probably be contributed by the Local Government
Board.
