CWA Criticism on Health Centre Policies at Armidale Meeting

Country Women delegates from 14 branches condemned the Department of Health for pressuring baby health centres to seek new or costly additions while resources are scarce. Mrs E. M. Walton and Miss M. White led complaints about officials who seemed heavy handed, urging the minister to address dissatisfaction. Delegates cited Bundarra Uralla and Walelah cases of proposed new buildings costing up to £1000, and called for a conference to challenge the department’s stance amid material shortages. The discussion also noted unpopularity of Saturday shop closures among country women.
