HC Deb 09 May 1918 vol 105 cc2331-2
85. Mr. PENNEFATHER

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War if his attention has been drawn to a certain rest camp used by soldiers operating in Egypt and Salonika where the floating military population varies from 9,000 to 15,000; if so, will he state the number of qualified dental surgeons ordinarily stationed at that camp; how many hours it takes to obtain from the nearest available source of supply additional dental surgeons if required; and whether the employment of such additional dental surgeons reduces the efficiency of the dental service at thy camp from which they are withdrawn?

Mr. MACPHERSON

I am making further inquiry, by telegraph, into this matter and will communicate with my hon. Friend as soon as possible.
