ALIEN DOCTORS
RETURNED SERVICES' POLICY
After consideration of representations made protesting against the admittance of alien refugee doctors as students by the University Senate, the Dominion executive committee of the N.Z.R.S.A. resolved at its last meeting: "That alien medical practitioners having been admitted to New Zealand should be allowed to practise their profession in this country, provided they have the necessary qualifications, but only pursuant to a licence which, will expire six months after the war, and that thereafter their right to practise in any particular locality be determined by a tribunal to be set up for that purpose." It is stated that the reason for the N.Z.R.S.A. giving publicity to this resolution, which is the subject of representations to the Government, is its desire to protect the interests of servicemen whose practices have been, acquired by aliens during their absence from New Zealand on active service.
