SERVICE PERSONNEL
Medical Examination
(N.Z.P.A.) WELLINGTON. Aug. 14. Plans are being made by the Army and Health Departments for the medical examination of all service personnel on their return to New Zealand, and also for those in the Dominion. The Minister of Defence (the Hon. F. Jones) stated to-day that the work would be done as far as possible by the existing medical boards, but it might be necessary to establish additional boards to cope with the large number who have to be examined.
Mr Jones said he expected assistance from hospital boards for X-ray work, as in the past.
