It is a condition of the payment of a contribution to any voluntary
association under this scheme (i) that the Council are satisfied as to the
efficiency of the maternity and child welfare service provided by the
association in respect of which the contribution is payable, and that
such service is being used by a reasonable number of those persons for
whom it is provided; (ii) that no reduction or alteration of such
service is made without the consent of the Council; (iii) that such
service, and any premises in which it is carried on, are open to inspection
at all reasonable times by any officer of the Council duly authorised
by the Council, and by any officer of the Ministry of Health appointed
for that purpose by the Minister; (iv) that the association sends to
the Council in each year a copy of the annual report of the association
on the maternity and child welfare work of the previous year, together
with a statement of the accounts of the association for that year relating
to such work and a copy of the auditor's certificate thereon, and
furnishes the Council from time to time with such other information
relating to the maternity and child welfare services provided by the
association and the expenditure thereon as the Council may reasonably
require.
A Council may not, except with the consent of the Minister of Health, terminate or make any reduction in the annual contribution payable to an association in respect of any service on the ground that any of the foregoing conditions are not fulfilled in the case of that service.
