§ Mr. Grovesasked the Secretary of State for Scotland, whether he is aware of the disquiet which exists amongst medical practitioners in Glasgow by reason of a circular headed Duties of Doctors in Air Raids never having been considered by the Glasgow Local Medical War Committee; what he proposes to do to insure that circulars purporting to be issued by such committee and particularly those allegedly issued after consultation with his department, have been submitted to and approved by the full committee.
§ Mr. E. BrownI am not aware that disquiet exists among medical practitioners in Glasgow on account of the circular referred to. I am informed that the issue of the circular was authorised as a matter of urgency by a sub-committee, who reported the action that had been taken to the local medical war committee. The question of the powers of its sub-committees is a matter for the local committee.
