HC Deb 16 February 1949 vol 461 c1130
20. Mr. Sorensen

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what steps are being taken to improve the living accommodation for male nurses and their families attached to Nigerian hospitals; and what plans exists to provide adequate accommodation for these nurses.

Mr. Creech Jones

I am asking the Governor for information, and will write to my hon. Friend when I have his reply.

Mr. Sorensen

Is my right hon. Friend aware that some of the accommodation for these male nurses leaves much to be desired? Could not action be taken beforehand to provide them with proper accommodation?

Mr. Creech Jones

I think my hon. Friend will find that point covered by the information which I propose to send him.
