§ Sir E. Graham-Littleasked the Attorney-General whether, in constituting pension boards after the war, preference will be given to medical officers who have served in the present war, as such officers would be in a better position to assess loss of fitness occasioned by war disabilities than medical men who have had no personal experience, and to allow, as these officers who have lost their private practices because of that service, some measure of compensation for their financial loss.
§ Sir W. WomersleyI have been asked to reply. I can assure the hon. Member that I am in general agreement with his suggestion that in constituting pensions boards after the war every opportunity should be taken to employ medical officers who have served in the Armed Forces.
