HC Deb 23 July 1897 vol 51 c900
CAPTAIN NORTON

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether the War Office has already taken steps to obtain from the medical schools students who have not completed their studies, with a view to the formation of an ambulance corps for service in the Soudan; or whether any such steps are in contemplation?

MR. BRODRICK

said: No force is being prepared in this country for service in the Soudan.
