HC Deb 23 January 1918 vol 101 cc971-2
32. Mr. LYNCH

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether the question has been adequately considered of providing the soldiers in the trenches with suitable body protection against rifle bullets; and, if so, whether anything will be done in the matter?

Mr. MACPHERSON

The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative. Suitable provision has been made.
