Lrewarp 2 Overseas Nurses’ Pensions No. of 1956.
IsLANDs. (Amendment).

OBJECTS AND REASONS.

The object of this Bill is to increase the rate
of the Nurses’ Retiring Allowance provided by law
from 8/4 a year for each month of service to $4.80
a yeur for each month of service. The present rate
of allowance which came into force in 1926 bears
little resemblance to the corresponding rate of a
present day pension under the Pensions and
Pensions (Increase) Acts and parallel legislation in
other territories.
