§ Sir E. Graham-Littleasked the Minister of Labour whether he will reconsider the case, details of which have been sent to him, of a woman medical student, now 20 years of age, refused permission by his Department to proceed with her medical studies for which she has been accorded admission to a London teaching hospital.
47W
§ Mr. E. BevinI have further considered this case. The person concerned does not satisfy the rules which I have had to lay down for regulating admission to a teaching hospital. Her admission would be at the expense of a student who satisfies the rules and I regret that I should not be justified in making an exception in her case.
