HC Deb 24 April 1917 vol 92 c2200
8. Mr. BYRNE

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War if he is aware that specially-enlisted clerks at Beggar's Bush Barracks, who enlisted in the Army Pay Corps in June, 1915, had received notice that they would be transferred compulsorily to line regiments: and if, having regard to the fact that Conscription is not in operation in Ireland, he will see that the agreement entered into with these men, which was for a special purpose, shall be kept?

Mr. MACPHERSON

I am making inquiries into the matter brought to notice, and will let the hon. Member know the result.
