HC Deb 27 February 1922 vol 151 c60W
Mr. DEVLIN

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that ejectment notices have been served on 50 Catholic ex-soldiers suffering from shell-shock who were patients in the hospital at Craigavon; whether the ejectment notices were accompanied by threats; whether the men threatened attended in a body before the board of medical advisers and placed their case before the members of that body; what steps have the medical board taken to protect these stricken ex-soldiers from the treatment with which they are threatened; and what report he has to make on the matter?

Sir R. SANDERS

I understand that this hospital is not under the control of the Army authorities. This question should therefore be addressed to my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for the Colonies.
