§ 34. Mr. Awberyasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he is aware that the Vickers plan for improving Kandang Kerban Hospital, Singapore, makes no provision for a teaching department; and if he will take steps to include one.
§ Mr. LytteltonNo, Sir. The development scheme for the hospital already includes full provision for teaching.
§ Mr. AwberyIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that the scheme propounded by Messrs. Vickers is not satisfactory in regard to the number of beds to be provided and the needs of the area, which are for approximately 350? Will he consult medical opinion in Singapore in this matter?
§ Mr. LytteltonThat is a quite different question to the one on the Order Paper. The hon. Member asked me if I was aware that the scheme makes no provision for a teaching department, to which I answered "No, Sir."
