HC Deb 08 May 1918 vol 105 cc2159-60
94. Mr. E. HARVEY

asked the Under secretary of State to the Air Ministry whether skilled mechanics who have enlisted for service in the Royal Air Force in response to advertisements are being at once transferred to the Infantry; and, if so, whether any steps can be taken to prevent this and to redress the hardship that has occurred in individual cases?

Major BAIRD

I am not aware that any such cases have occurred, but if the hon. Member will furnish me with particulars I shall be very glad to investigate them.

Mr. SNOWDEN

Will the hon. Gentleman look on the Notice Paper and see a question in which the number, name, and regimental particulars of a soldier are given?

Major BAIRD

If any case is brought to my notice. I will promise to look into it.
