The question of appointing a sub-committee or special committee
to deal with the question of the working of the Dispensary,
the assessment of children going away to sanatoria and convalescent
homes, and after-care is a very difficult one to decide
just now, and I recommend that, for a short time, these questions
be decided by the Public Health Committee, or the Interim
Tuberculosis Care Committee, and that afterwards they can
reconsider the appointment of a special committee, when the
Ministry of Health has given some definite decision as to the
future organisation of Care Committee work in London.
