asked the Home Secretary whether he has inquired into the case of Ellen Carter, who was, on 10th May, sentenced at Eastbourne to six months' imprisonment under Regulation 40 D; whether the two soldiers concerned in this case were called as witnesses; whether the woman underwent medical examination; and whether he will consider a reduction of this sentence?

I am making inquiry as to this case, and will let the hon. Member know the result.
