HC Deb 29 June 1915 vol 72 c1616
2. Mr. JAMES MASON

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he will state what is the percentage of married men in all branches of the Army at the present time?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for WAR (Mr. Tennant)

As I have already stated, this information is not available.

Mr. MASON

Will the right hon. Gentleman consider the advisability of taking some steps in future to reduce the enormous proportion of married men?

Mr. SPEAKER

That is a very large subject to arise out of a very small question.
