HC Deb 03 May 1950 vol 474 c1664
33. Commander Noble

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what is the number of vacancies existing for medical officers in the Colonial Medical Service; and whether any steps are being taken to attract to it recruits from Malta.

Mr. J. Griffiths

There are 213 vacancies for medical officers in the Colonial Medical Service. I have no reason to think that the opportunities available in the Colonial Medical Service are not well known in Malta, but I will consider whether any further steps could usefully be taken on the lines suggested.
