§ Sir E. Graham-Littleasked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that Circular 2080, dated 3rd July, issued by the Ministry of Health contains in paragraph 3 a prohibition that precludes from study at the leading hospitals refugee alien doctors who have been admitted in limited numbers by express permission of the Home Office on the advice of its medical advisory committee, to take a medical qualification in this country; and will he take steps to mitigate this prohibition which renders that permission nugatory?

§ Sir J. AndersonThe question which my hon. Friend has in mind is, I presume, whether doctors of enemy nationality can be allowed to work in hospitals which provide treatment for members of His Majesty's Forces. I propose to review this matter in consultation with my right hon. Friend the Minister of Health and the military authorities.
