§ Mr. WARDLEasked the President of the Local Government Board whether, in view of the fact that £10,000 has been allocated from the Prince of Wales' Fund to Lord Knutsford's hospitals, with a view to obviating the risk of officers becoming inmates of asylums, he will bring before those concerned the desirability of allocating an amount proportionate to the needs of the rank and file, in order to make provision for convalescent homes for uncertifiable nerve-shaken private soldiers who have been discharged from the Army, and so that, in accordance with the recommendation of the Murray Committee on Disablement, such homes shall be free from association with any suspicion of lunacy, and afford, together with medical care and supervision, cheerful surroundings and appropriate occupation and interests?
§ Mr. FORSTERI would refer my hon. Friend to the answer I gave to the hon. Member for North Somerset on the 18th of July. The recommendation of the Committee referred to is fully borne in mind by the medical authorities.
