HC Deb 03 August 1897 vol 52 cc238-9
COLONEL DENNY

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War how many vacancies were advertised for the Army Medical Service examinations now in progress; how many candidates applied; and how many of these were rejected as physically unfit?

MR. BRODRICK

Thirty-six vacancies were advertised, and 28 candidates applied. Two were rejected as medically unfit, three did not present themselves for the physical test, and one was otherwise disqualified.
