Colonel Sandeman Allen

asked the Minister of Health whether he will consider the immediate closing of all casual wards for the period of the war?

No, Sir. The policy adopted by my Department in this matter was outlined in the reply I gave to my hon. Friends the Members for Evesham (Mr. De la B½re) and Tamworth (Sir J. Mellor) on 18th February.
