HC Deb 08 December 1960 vol 631 c159W
33. Mr. C. Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what medical and surgical services are now available at St. Helena.

Mr. Iain Macleod

There is at present one doctor on the island and there is a small hospital. The post of senior medical officer is vacant, but I am in touch with a suitable candidate. Until this vacancy has been filled arrangements are being made for a surgeon to visit St. Helena.
