HC Deb 09 July 1918 vol 108 c155
58. Sir J. BUTCHER

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he can give an assurance that conscientious objectors who are employed in the Civil Service and who have refused to serve in the Army shall not be promoted over the heads of Civil servants who have served or are serving in the Army?

Mr. BONAR LAW

On behalf of the Government, I gladly give the assurance asked for by my hon. and learned Friend.
