§ 44. Mr. WATTasked the Under-Secretary of State for War if he is aware that, on the hospital ship "Oxfordshire," from Havre to Southampton, on 19th March, sixty British soldiers, the majority of them from the Black Watch and 6th Gordon Regiments, were taken out of their cots to make room for sixty Germans; that one of the British soldiers so removed subsequently died; and that, in addition, the Germans were supplied with fresh eggs and bread, while the British wounded soldiers had only biscuits; and if in the future he will see that the British soldier when wounded is not subjected to any worse treament than wounded German prisoners?
§ Mr. TENNANTI am making inquiries. Perhaps my hon. Friend would put the question down again in about a week's time.
