HC Deb 08 February 1926 vol 191 c607
21. Sir W. de FRECE

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he has considered the desirability of arranging for the constitution of some central medical council who could advise intending settlers of the kind of climate they might expect to find in the Dominion or Colony to which they wished to go?

Major HENNESSY

Information as to the climate of the Dominions is furnished in the handbooks published by the Over-sea Settlement Office as well as by the offices of the Dominions concerned. Information as to the various Colonies is also procurable from many sources. The Secretary of State does not think there is sufficient reason for setting up a special medical council such as my hon. Friend suggests.
