§ Colonel DAYasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he is aware of the manifesto issued by the British Medical Association in regard to the acceptance by doctors of colonial appointments; and whether he will reconsider the new regulations with a view to consultation with the association?
§ Mr. AMERYI have seen this announcement which arises out of regulations recently issued for the East African Medical Service, and which was published before I had had an opportunity of considering the representations which members of the medical staff in East Africa wished to make to me as to the effect of these regulations on officers already in the Service. I have now received and considered these representa-540W tions and have reached certain decisions with regard to the points raised. I have intimated to the British Medical Association that I am prepared to receive a deputation from them.
