HC Deb 09 November 1908 vol 195 c1682
COLONEL LOCKWOOD

On behalf of the hon. Member for the Andover Division of Hampshire, I beg to ask the Secretary of State for War if he will state what percentage of men have been refused enlistment in the unemployed Special Reserve owing to not being able to pass the health standard.

MR. HALDANE

Statistics of medical rejections for the Special Reserve are received quarterly. A general percentage worked out from these Returns would only be misleading, and therefore I have not attempted to compile figures showing the percentage of medical rejections.
