§ Major DAVID DAVIESasked the Pensions Minister whether, in view of the fact that the military medical authorities have decided that Private Richard Evan Howells, late of the Montgomeryshire Yeomanry, is suffering from club foot (talipes equinovarus), while, on the other hand, the doctor who examined Private Howells on behalf of the Montgomeryshire War Pensions Committee states that he certainly has not the disease, he will take steps to secure an independent medical opinion on the matter?
