ABSTRACT

Mr James spoke on behalf of St George's Hospital; he 'did not feel that the scheme was sufficiently advanced' to reach a definite conclusion but unofficially: i) St George's 'might agree temporarily to run a general "brush-up" Post-Graduate course'; ii) '... the Governors would object to any others than members of their own staff treating patients in the Hospital'; iii) it was 'quite possible' that the Medical School Com­ mittee might not object to outside men giving demonstrations in the School [if they brought] their own cases, etc., for demonstration but 'it would be absolutely

impossible to bring any outside clinical material into the Out-patient Department and iv) The Post-graduate Association would have to guarantee the School the sum of £2000 per year, in addition to the expenses of the unit'. Frankau followed this by saying that he 'did not think the lay governors would agree to outside people having anything to do with the affairs of the Hospital'.
