HC Deb 10 November 1930 vol 244 c1289
8. Colonel HOWARD-BURY

asked the Secretary of State for India whether he is aware that diphtheria has been prevalent in Kohat for a year and that the disease has been almost entirely confined to British officers and their families; and whether any steps have been taken to trace the disease to its source and to prevent its future recurrence

Mr. BENN

I have not received any information on the subject, but will inquire if the hon. and gallant Member so desires.

Colonel HOWARD-BURY

If the right hon. Gentleman will inquire, I shall be glad, as it has been very bad.
