Dr Hyacinth Morgan: Thank you, I am glad to know that on one point at any rate I am in order. We train the physician so that—whether he has been in practice for long or is on his first trial—he shall know whether a particular drug should be used in certain conditions from which a patient is suffering. That may be useful for treatment in subsequent cases. Human derangements are very difficult matters, and...
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: I am so glad.
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: Where do I come in in all this? I wanted to make my preliminary remarks in order to come to certain conclusions. I want to try to reply to certain of the illustrations which have been put forward, some of which were really extraordinary. It has been said that an infant should not be given treatment by an ordinary outside doctor. Many of the remarks which have been made reflect upon the whole...
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: Is this in order, Sir Leonard? When I tried to speak on a subject which was just as foreign to the debate I was ruled out of order.
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: This is out of order.
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: They did not understand it, that is all.
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: I live in Hendon; I know that there is some spare land.
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: But you are very healthy.
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: They were chosen according to need.
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: The hon. and gallant Member should not be flippant, but should try to make a decent speech.
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: Why?
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: Handing out the "bawbees."
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: When did the late Home Secretary die?
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: He will have to do some more praying.
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: Even in South Africa?
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: I tried to catch your eye, Sir Rhys, but you were looking elsewhere.
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: I have listened to this discussion, since I was most politely asked to attend a Committee meeting and I am thankful to the hon. Member who gave me that invitation. This discussion, as is usual in debates of this kind, has been skimming all round, but not getting to the bottom of, the problem I put before the House in the debate on Second Reading. We have stuck to the problem of the position...
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: The point we are discussing in this Amendment should be whether an alleged British citizen in the Cocos Islands could leave there and travel abroad. You are ruling, Sir Rhys, that the discussion must be confined to those who leave the Cocos Islands and go to Australia. I dare say you will rule me out of order, but I should have liked to discuss what the position would be if these citizens...
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: I can only accept your Ruling and say that it is unique that one can discuss the Cocos Islanders vis-à-vis Australia, but cannot discuss them vis-à-vis any other supposed Dominion. With great respect, I should like to submit that we should include the position of these Cocos Islanders if they went to and hoped to be citizens of South Africa. But as you have ruled me out of order, I can only...
Dr Hyacinth Morgan: Although one day I want to speak at length in this House on the West Indies, I think that tonight, after the very good speeches which we have heard in this debate, one should be brief. 7.45 p.m. In the last decade, the Colonial Office has done magnificient work in connection with the West Indies. I am not saying that conditions in the West Indies have changed completely, but great progress...
