HC Deb 26 July 1900 vol 86 cc1301-2
DR. FARQUHARSON (Aberdeenshire, W.)

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether he is now in a position to give the House any further information respecting the statement that civil surgeons employed in South Africa have been required by the Army Medical Department to sign a contract in which they undertook not to divulge in any way what their impressions might be as to hospital matters.

* THE UNDER SECRETARY OF STATE FOR WAR (Mr. WYNDHAM,) Dover

No, Sir. No reply has as yet been received from Lord Roberts.

DR. TANNER (Cork CO., Mid)

When may we expect one?

[No answer was given.]
