§ Dr. Howittasked the Secretary of State for War why cases of psycho-neurosis have been evacuated to England and been sent to general hospitals; and whether it is his intention to follow the recommendations of the 1922 report for the treatment and prevention of such cases?
§ Mr. StanleyIt is inevitable that a number of cases of psycho-neurosis must be evacuated to England, and the necessity for this was recognised in the report referred to. The recommendations of the report for the treatment and prevention of such cases are being followed in the present organisation, which provides for psychiatric centres and for convalescent depots overseas. At these centres, patients are under the care of experts in nervous disorders.
