HC Deb 05 June 1918 vol 106 cc1558-9
22. Captain CARR-GOMM

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he is aware of the fact that the women doctors attached to the Royal Army Medical Corps in Malta have protested against the recent deprivation of their privilege as officers of censoring their own letters and the censoring of their letters by an officer of the rank of second-lieutenant; whether these ladies have the pay and standing of officers of the Royal Army Medical Corps, and have given up practices at home to do this Army work; and whether 'he will arrange with the officer commanding to restore the privilege that they formerly held?

Mr. MACPHERSON

I am having inquiry made, and will communicate with my hon. and gallant Friend as soon as possible.
