HC Deb 19 July 1916 vol 84 c1008
40. Mr. JOYNSON-HICKS

asked how many Regular captains in the Royal Army Medical Corps have been promoted majors since the War began; and does the number of medical promotions bear any proportion to that of combatant promotions of similar rank?

Mr. FORSTER

One hundred and fifty-five captains have been promoted since the beginning of the War. The number of promotions in the Royal Army Medical Corps has not been fixed so as to bear a definite proportion to combatant promotions of similar rank.
