Sir W. Smiles

asked the Secretary of State for War, if he will give particulars of the probable date of demobilisation of the various groups in the Q.A.I.M.N.S./R., now serving in India, as there is considerable dissatisfaction among members of this service that this information has not been published.

Mr. Bellenger

The current age and service group of Nursing Officers, Q.A.I.M.N.S (R) now being released is 54. All officers of this group are due to be released between 1st April and 31st August 1947. This information was cabled to all commands abroad including India on 6th March, 1947. In the normal way it would be promulgated in unit orders, which are available for all serving personnel to see. Dates for the release of subsequent groups have not yet been decided.
