HC Deb 14 December 1943 vol 395 c1404W
Miss Ward

asked the Secretary of State for India whether he is aware of the acute shortage of Army nurses in India; and what is being done to ensure a fair distribution of the available trained service personnel?

Mr. Amery

Yes, Sir: this shortage is unfortunately felt in India as well as in other theatres of war, but I have no reason to question the fair distribution between them by the War Office of the resources available in the Q.A.I.M.N.S.
