HC Deb 30 July 1883 vol 282 cc958-1104
DR. LYONS

asked, Whether, should, unhappily, further medical aid be required to meet the visitation of cholera in Egypt, an opportunity would be afforded to the Medical Schools and Colleges in Ireland to send a contingent to share in this important and distinguished service; and why some such step was not taken in the first instance?

LORD EDMOND FITZMAURICE

Sir, the 12 appointments were all made on the recommendation of Sir Joseph Fayrer. There was no distinction made as between Irishmen, Englishmen, and Scotchmen; but preference was given to those with Indian experience. Three of the 12 gentlemen appointed were members of Schools of Medicine in Ireland; and to one Doctor of Medicine of the Queen's University au appointment was offered, but declined on private grounds.
