HC Deb 07 March 1917 vol 91 c407W
Mr. GINNELL

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office how many recruiting medical officers are now under pay in Ireland; what is the approximate amount paid to them; and why are they retained since the issue of an instruction to them not to reject any recruit on medical grounds?

Mr. FORSTER

Information on the first two parts of the question is not readily available in view of the fact that such officers do not necessarily devote the whole or any fixed proportion of their time to recruiting duties- As regard the third part no such instruction has been issued.
