HC Deb 20 June 1944 vol 401 cc31-2W
Major Morris

asked the Secretary of State for War if there is any objection to a British officer who escaped from a German prisoner of war camp and is now in Switzerland accepting civilian employment in that country.

Sir J. Grigg

As he is still a serving officer on full pay, the question would have to be considered in the light of the circumstances of the particular case. The Military Attaché is endeavouring to secure that as many escaped British prisoners as possible shall be usefully occupied.
