HC Deb 28 February 1901 vol 90 cc30-1
MR ARTHUR STANLEY (Lancashire, Ormskirk)

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether Woodstock Hospital, Cape Town, is still being used for enteric patients; and whether, in view of the smells which are acknowledged to exist at Woodstock, any steps have been taken to find another and more suitable site in the neighbourhood of Cape Town.

*THE FINANCIAL SECRETARY TO THE WAR OFFICE (Lord STANLEY,) Lancashire, Westhoughton

The hospital is still being used for enteric patients. Many improvements have recently been made in the hospital, and the senior medical officer in charge now describes everything as satisfactory. The only change contemplated is the removal of the drainage outfall.
