§ CAPTAIN NORTONI beg to ask the Secretary of State for War whether he can say what steps, if any, have been taken to increase the comfort in the wards of the Royal Victoria hospital at Netley by the addition of chairs for invalid soldiers in lieu of the forms heretofore in use.
LORD STANLEYSix hundred Windsor chairs with cushions have been issued to Netley for use in wards, etc. Further comfortable easy chairs have been provided for the wards by Her Majesty the Queen out of a sum of money which she had at her disposal.
