The Rossburn Hospital administrative committee submits a detailed brief to secure ministerial approval for a building extension to increase capacity from ten to nineteen beds. It cites chronic overcrowding since opening in 1950, with occupancy spikes even during normal months, and notes overflow from the Indian Reserve as a key factor.
