HC Deb 31 December 1916 vol 88 c1634
113. Mr. HUGH LAW

asked the Under-Secretary of. State for War whether he is aware that certain of the surgical appliances issued to wounded soldiers in this country and in Ireland are inferior to those supplied in similar cases by the Governments of the Dominions; and whether steps will be taken to level up the quality of such appliances to the Colonial standard?

Mr. FORSTER

I am not aware that wounded soldiers in this country and Ireland are supplied with surgical appliances inferior to those supplied by the Dominion Governments. Perhaps the hon. Member would kindly furnish me with more precise details, when I will, if necessary, have the matter further inquired into.
