HC Deb 15 March 1916 vol 80 c2069
80. Mr. SNOWDEN

asked the President of the Local Government Board what action he proposes to take in regard to a decision of the Southampton Tribunal to grant exemption to a sailmaker on the condition that he remained in the employment of his present employer; and if he will communicate with the tribunal and point out that such a decision is a distinct violation of Clause 2, Section 3, of the Military Service Act, 1916?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. Hayes Fisher)

I am informed that the local tribunal cannot trace the case to which the question relates.
