HC Deb 24 July 1916 vol 84 c1295
1. Sir EDWIN CORNWALL

asked the Under-Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he has any information as to the treatment of the non-commissioned officers and men who fell into Turkish hands at Kut-el-Amara?

The UNDER-SECRETARY of STATE for FOREIGN AFFAIRS (Lord Robert Cecil)

I regret to say that we are so far without any information as to the treatment of the non-commissioned officers and men who were taken prisoners at Kut, although the United States Embassy at Constantinople are sparing no efforts to obtain this information.

Sir E. CORNWALL

In view of the importance of this matter I beg to give notice that I shall repeat my question on Thursday.
