HC Deb 20 March 1918 vol 104 c965
33. Mr. ELLIS DAVIES

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether Welsh theological students who volunteered for the Royal Army Medical Corps, and have been at the front for a long period, are now being compelled to join combatant forces; whether these students are to be given the opportunity of appealing, if they desire, for exemption on conscientious grounds; and whether some arrangement will be made to utilise the services of the men without breaking the pledges given them?

Mr. MACPHERSON

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer which I gave to my hon. Friend the Member for Blackburn on this subject on 5th February last. I will send him a copy.
