Is it viable to have other organisations make contributions? If one ponders over how to raise capital further, there are many more organisations that can be requested- what about the comprehensive schools and Grammar ? The funds need to do more that suffice the demands for prospective pensions; they must be used to finance other facilities that are likely to be in great demand as a result of an ageing population. Raising pensions is merely the beginning of the list of what to do when a 'greying population' starts to take hold. These also are prerequisites that the political machine ought to consider- when they eventually raise capital levels: Convenient household features such as taps that can be pushed with relative ease by elderly people with arthritic conditions. A larger proportion of people will be more inclined to suffer from brain degenerative illnesses such as dementia in their 80s and 90s, rather than perish in their 60s and 70s from cardiovascular disease. Thus, 'special homes' accommodating elderly people suffering from Alzheimer's or senile dementia will be required and so will be doctors or nurses trained who are expert in tha t field of pathology. However, diseases such as strokes and heart disease will continue to some degree and thus 'normal' nursing/retirement homes will be in demand as will work forces for those places. Although recruiting experts from abroad may financially be problematic, but, since these individuals are often regarded as members of migrating 'elite' groups, they themselves may be able to relocate in Guernsey with relative ease a they have the capital to ensure that they are not hindred by potential obstacles such as the expenses that are generated through paying for flights and accommodation. Perhaps more public transport will be necessary- though I am fully aware that this is a controversial issue at the moment- as there will inevitably be less mobile people who require bus services so that they can get by with routine aspects of their lives. That's why seeking further sources of potential capital would be a wise manoeuvre because there are more implications than one would have expected.
