It was pointed out in the report of the Committee that Anaes-

thesiology was a distinct discipline within the field of medica l

studies and its academic development at the University had bee n

inhibited by the present arrangements, one of which was that Anaes-

thesiologv was only a division within the Department of Surgery .

Additional space would be provided by the Vancouver General Hosn1 .tal

and would therefore not be a cost to the University .


(b) Statement concerning delays in submitting proposals to Senat e

Mr. Bourne stated that members of the New Programmes Committe e

were of the opinion that proposals for new programmes submitted t o

Senate for approval had often not been brought before Senate a s

early as they should have been . From time to time the Committee

had found that Faculties or other groups had taken initial step s

to implement proposals, evidently acting on the assumption tha t

Senate would approve them .
