HC Deb 24 July 1918 vol 108 c1790
36. Mr. HARRIS

asked the Undersecretary of State for War if he can say at what age Canada, Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand, respectively, send soldiers into the trenches; whether they permit any men to be sent to Franco under nineteen; and what is the minimum length of training soldiers of the Dominions are subject to before being sent to the fighting line?

Mr. MACPHERSON

I cannot answer this question. The matter is one within the discretion of the Dominion authorities alone.
