HC Deb 07 March 1916 vol 80 c1348
19. Mr. ELLIS DAVIES

asked under what authority Privates R. G. Williams and R. G. Thomas, of the 17th Royal Welsh Fusiliers, are still in the trenches, notwithstanding the fact that their commanding officer has had proof supplied him that they are only seventeen years of age and been requested to release them or give them work at the base?

Mr. TENNANT

I think if my hon. Friend refers to the reply which I gave to the hon. Member for Blackburn, on 2nd November, he will find the answer to his question.
