§ 38. Sir E. COATESasked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been called to the cases of cerebro-spinal meningitis among the troops in camp at Reed Hall Camp, Colchester; whether he is aware that men who have been in contact with others who have developed the disease are detained under observation in huts which closely adjoin and are part of a block in which a large number of the troops are housed; and whether he will give directions for 378 these cases to be removed to suitable quarters properly isolated until the full period of quarantine has expired?
§ Mr. TENNANTI am making inquiries into the subject of the hon. Member's question, and will in due course let him know the result.
