§ Mr. Grovesasked the Minister of Health, by whom, and when, was the suggestion made for a meeting of local medical war committees to be addressed by him in London; and whether he is aware that there have been few, if any, meetings of the committees to enable them to appoint the representative to attend the meeting in London?
§ Mr. E. BrownThe suggestion was made in January to my predecessor by the Secretary of the Central Medical War Committee. I am not aware what steps the local medical war committees took to appoint their representatives.
§ Mr. Grovesasked the Minister of Health why, having regard to the assurances given in this House that the Central Medical War Committee and local medical war committees are independent of, and nothing to do with, the British Medical Association, he arranged for the meeting of representatives of the local medical war committees, to be addressed by him, to be held at the British Medical Association House?
§ Mr. BrownNeither ray predecessor nor I arranged where the meeting called by the382W Central Medical War Committee was to be held, but as British Medical Association House is the office of the Committee it is natural that the meeting should be held there.
§ Sir F. Fremantleasked the Minister of Health whether he will publish the conclusions of the committee recently appointed to advise as to the distribution of medical man-power between the several civil and fighting services and general medical practice?
