HC Deb 13 July 1931 vol 255 cc15-6
23. Major HERBERT EVANS

asked the Minister of Pensions whether he will produce and issue for general information a comprehensive and scientific record of the experiences and achievements of the Ministry in medical and surgical spheres, including treatment of wounds, disorders of the nervous systems, and other diseases?

The MINISTER of PENSIONS (Mr. F. O. Roberts)

A review of the Ministry's experience in the handling of the principal war disabilities has been prepared by the Ministry for inclusion in the forthcoming "Official Medical History of the War," which I understand will be issued at a very early date. I may add that I am entirely in sympathy with my hon. and gallant Friend's suggestion, and have already under consideration what further steps, if any, can usefully be taken in this direction.
