HC Deb 29 October 1945 vol 415 c196W
Mr. Ernest Davies

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will arrange for repatriation of personnel requiring treatment for diseases contracted overseas when the necessary apparatus, such as equipment for X-ray therapy, is not available in the area.

Mr. Lawson

Yes, Sir, subject to the limitations imposed by transport facilities, and with due regard to the fact that it is not necessary to bring the patients all the way to the United Kingdom when adequate facilities are available to the military medical authorities at some nearer point.
