HC Deb 30 July 1900 vol 87 c20
MR. BAINBRIDGE

I beg to ask the Under Secretary of State for War whether, if an officer invalided home from the seat of war requires the attention of specialists while in a military hospital in England, it is the rule that such advice has to be obtained and paid for by the officer himself or his relatives.

*MR. WYNDHAM

If the medical officer in charge of a patient is of opinion that the assistance of a specialist is required, the cost would be borne by War Department funds.
