HC Deb 03 July 1933 vol 280 cc18-9
30. Mr. LOGAN

(for Mr. KIRK-WOOD) asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will bring before the Department of Health the advisability of organising an air-ambulance service for the conveyance of urgent medical and surgical cases from the Hebrides and Western Isles to the hospitals and infirmaries in Glasgow; and will he consider the advisability of arranging a scheme, in co-operation with the Saint Andrews Ambulance Association and the Highland Medical Service, so that there can be co-operation?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for SCOTLAND (Mr. Skelton)

The sugestion contained in the question involves a, number of practical difficulties which would require most careful consideration before its adoption.
