HC Deb 05 July 1916 vol 83 c1501
23. Mr. EDMUND HARVEY

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been called to the case of Mr. Sidney J. C. Warr, of Southend, who made his claim for exemption before the Appeal Tribunal on Saturday, 17th June, and on the 24th received a telegram from the tribunal granting him leave to appeal to the Central Tribunal, but not withstanding that he had returned his calling up paper to the recruiting officer with the information that he was appealing to the Central Tribunal, was arrested on 27th June as an absentee; and what steps he is taking to remedy the injustice that has been done?

Mr. TENNANT

I am unable to answer this question to-day. Perhaps my hon. Friend would repeat it next week?
