HC Deb 27 June 1918 vol 107 cc1238-9W
Mr. ARTHUR RICHARDSON

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Food whether, in view of the specially urgent demands made upon the doctors remaining in civil life, arrangements can be made to allow them the same-scale of rations as is granted to medical men in the Army?

Mr. CLYNES

Civilian doctors in general practice receive the supplementary ration for heavy workers, in addition to the adult meat ration. In view of the quantities procurable under these combined rations no further increase is considered necessary.
