ARMY (MEDICAL DEPARTMENT)-HOSPITAL SERVICES-RESOLUTION—

Moved to resolve, "That while the individual medical officers in Egypt behaved admirably

well, the system under which they worked did not successfully stand the strain put

upon it; that the military authority exercised by medical officers is inconvenient, and

that discipline in hospitals ought to be administered by combatant officers, leaving to

the medical officers medical duties only; also that medical officers ought to be attached

to regiments instead of being detailed for duty day by day from station and other

hospitals,"-(Viscount Bury)

After short debate, Motion (by leave of the House) withdrawn.

ARMY (RE-ORGANIZATION)-PURCHASE COLONELS-Question, Observations,

The Earl of Longford; Reply, The Earl of Morley
