The existence of “free monies” is an essential element in ensuring the exercise of individual initiative in research projects, and in reaching out for progress along new lines. It will, for example, be possible to apply them in seeking new solutions to problems of departmental organisation such as catering services, testing new forms of records or new methods of filing and analysis, and in promoting in every way the continuous increase in knowledge of the most effective practice of the different branches of hospital management. CONCLUSION 12.—These notes are issued after consultation with the Ministry of Health and the Department of Health for Scotland and will, it is hoped, prove sufficiently indicative to enable the governing bodies of teaching hospitals and all other hospitals to explain the position as it will be to their present supporters and so retain their interest and goodwill in the future when the National Health Service comes into operation. Copies of this Memorandum may be obtained, on application to the British Hospitals Association, 52 Green Street, London, W.I., price 3d. per copy, post free or 10/- per 50 copies or 15/- per 100 copies.
