91. Mr. E. HARVEYasked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been called to the case of Michael Harris, now Private No. 4,683 in the West Yorkshire Regiment at Clipstone Camp, Mansfield, who was granted conditional exemption on domestic grounds by the Leeds Tribunal over six weeks ago, but who has not hitherto been released by the military authorities, in spite of repeated requests by his father, who has five sons in the Army, is in feeble health, and needs his help; whether he is aware that the father, Mr. Abram S. Harris, in addition to communications addressed to the commanding officer, has twice sent registered letters to the War Office enclosing stamped envelopes for reply, and 531 has also forwarded his son's exemption card to the War Office, but has received neither reply nor acknowledgment of any kind; and whether he will take steps to give effect forthwith to the decision of the tribunal?
§ Mr. TENNANTI have ascertained that this man is being relegated to the Reserve, so that no further action is necessary.
