HC Deb 08 August 1940 vol 364 c445W
Mr. Shinwell

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will make inquiries into the treatment received by inmates of the emergency hospital, Shotley Bridge, Durham, who complain of excessive discipline; and whether he will accept responsibility for the hospital orders issued by Major Briggs, Royal Army Medical Corps, who is in control of the hospital?

Mr. Eden

I am making inquiries, and will write to my hon. Friend as soon as I have the necessary information.
