HC Deb 18 March 1912 vol 35 c1673W
Mr. GEORGE ROBERTS

asked the Under-Secretary for War if it has been decided that, when soldiers are admitted to hospital suffering from the effects of vaccination, the disability may be considered as sickness caused by military service; and, if so, will he consider the advisability of reducing the extent and expense of liability to disablement by vaccination by conceding to soldiers the right of exemption on the ground of conscientious objection?

Colonel SEELY

The reply to the first part of the question is in the affirmative and to the second part in the negative.
