§ 10. Colonel YATEasked the Secretary of State for India whether he is aware that there are British officers in India who were passed by a medical board as long ago as March last as unfit to remain in India, and are still kept in the Plains waiting for passages to be arranged; and, considering that the health of these officers will in all probability be permanently injured, ho will state what steps are being taken to compensate them in the event of their being unable to follow their profession on their return to England?
§ Mr. MONTAGUI have no reason to think that the return to this country of officers who are passed as medically unfit to remain in India is being delayed; but I will have inquiry made.
