Only 100 percent of the loan was left with underwriters, with 10,749 total cash and conversion applications. The item notes this as the eleventh conversion operation in London since 1982, totaling £182 million with annual interest and exchange around £3,490,000. Canberra fears underwriter failure to secure subscriptions may handicap future conversions.

Official Statement on Canberra Hospital Board Adopts for Minister
The Canberra Community Hospital Board adopted an official statement to the Minister for Health after a public meeting at Causeway in December. Dissenting Mrs Tiltyard criticized the statement noting her absence from five board meetings led to several mini statements and misgivings. The board will not reference Dr Nott’s covering letter, which the chairman said exceeded authority. The statement, prepared under Ordinance No 12 of 1838, asserts the board’s role in control, management, and maintenance of the hospital, with appointments deemed necessary and exempt from the Public Service Act. The incident followed a frosty early morning crash and involved passengers mostly in their first week, with rescue efforts aiding government, hospital, and patient care.
