General matters arising include the appointment and remuneration of medical and clerical staff; financial issues relating to the sending of patients to extern hospitals; tenders for the supply of provisions to the hospitals; and orders relating to the dispensary districts throughout the county.

Decisions relating to the boarding-out of children are recorded intermittently in each minute book.
