HC Deb 24 March 1884 vol 286 c589
MR. GIBSON

asked the Under Secretary of State for India, If he would lay upon the Table, and circulate as a Parliamentary Paper, the amended memorandum relative to the Indian Medical Service, and indicate by italics or otherwise what are the exact changes that have been made in. The condition of that service; and, has it any, and, if so, what, application to the medical officers who entered the service before its date?

MR. J. K. CROSS

Sir, I will lay the Memorandum in question, together with those which preceded it, on the Table. The last Memorandum makes no change in the conditions of service, but merely elucidates certain points regarding which misapprehension is alleged, although these points are identically the same as have been continuously notified since the year 1866.

MR. GIBSON

Then why was it issued?

MR. J. K. CROSS

said, the Memorandum would speak for itself, and would be sufficient to satisfy the right hon. and learned Gentleman.
