HC Deb 15 July 1915 vol 73 c998
30. Mr. C. DUNCAN

asked the Secretary to the Treasury whether two assistant clerks who recently joined the Army have been informed that their positions in the Board of Inland Revenue will not be kept open for them until after the War; and, if so, what reason is assigned for such a course having been taken?

Mr. MONTAGU

I understand my hon. Friend to refer to two gentlemen who, without the Board's permission, left their civil posts in order to enlist. Their action in so doing involved the resignation of their appointments and they were informed to that effect.
