HC Deb 05 January 1916 vol 77 c939
24. Mr. PRINGLE

asked the Prime Minister whether he is aware that the figures under the Derby scheme have been given in the Press over the signature of a member of the Joint Labour Recruiting Committee, and, if so, will he say what action he proposes to take?

The PRIME MINISTER (Mr. Asquith)

My attention has been called to the incident to which my hon. Friend refers. It was, I am informed, due to an unfortunate misunderstanding, and I do not propose to take any action in the matter.
