HC Deb 18 March 1919 vol 113 c1946W
Sir HENRY CRAIK

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if any steps have been taken to constitute a Ministry of Health in Egypt, as urged by a recent Committee of Inquiry?

Mr. D. WARD

Administrative changes of considerable importance are already taking place on the lines recommended by the Committee of Inquiry, and other steps are under consideration, but the expansion of the Department of Public Health to the full extent urged by the Committee requires further examination by the authorities concerned.
