HC Deb 25 February 1941 vol 369 c377W
Mr. McGovern

asked the Secretary of State for War his reason for failing to have the commanding officer of a training centre, of which he has been informed, court-martialled for brutality on conscientious objectors, as he was aware of, and responsible for, such brutal treatment?

Captain Margesson

The proceedings of the court of inquiry did not disclose any facts on which such a charge could be made against the commanding officer.
