HC Deb 31 March 1919 vol 114 cc899-900W
Colonel WESTON

asked the Secretary of State for War whether only about one-tenth of the officers of the Royal Army Veterinary Corps have yet been de-mobilised, and whether, in the interests of stock owners, he will take steps to accelerate the release of those officers, numbering about 1,000, who were engaged in civil veterinary practice before they joined the Army?

Captain GUEST

I am informed that over 60 per cent. of the officers of the Royal Army Veterinary Corps who were in civil practice before the War have been demobilised.
