§ Mr. Grovesasked the Secretary of State for War whether he will consider, in the interests of efficiency of the medical ser- 431W vices, making it possible for medical men with the Forces who have little or no experience of military medical work either to make visits to the Forces overseas in order to learn at first-hand precisely the conditions prevailing or to receive courses of instruction from medical men with overseas military experience?
§ Mr. EdenIt is a principle in the medical services of the Army that all medical officers receive the maximum amount of military medical instruction compatible with the rate of supply of these officers from civil sources and the military demands for their services with military units. A number of medical officers from home commands have visited overseas units in order to see the conditions in which these units are working.
