Part of the debate – in the House of Commons at on 9 March 1939.
The scheme for nursing auxiliaries is under the control of the Central Emergency Committee, which I have set up for the nursing profession. It is contemplated that the auxiliaries will be renumerated for whole-time service in war on the same basis as other volunteers and I am sending my hon. Friend a copy of the reply which was given by my right hon. Friend the Lord Privy Seal on the 16th February to a question on this subject by my hon. Friend the Member for South Nottingham (Mr. Markham).
