§ 27. Mr. COTTONasked the Under-Secretary of State for War why the discharge from the Army is being delayed of Private W. W. Lee, No. 339549, Army Service Corps, Mechanical Transport, who was invalided from France, and, after being in 2477 hospital at Halifax, Norwood, and Croydon, has again been admitted to hospital in this country; and whether this man is now totally unfit for military service?
§ Mr. MACPHERSONI am afraid my hon. Friend is misinformed. Private Lee is fit for military service in category B2, and I regret therefore that his discharge on medical grounds cannot be sanctioned.
§ Mr. COTTONIs the right hon Gentleman aware that this man is again in hospital now?
§ Mr. MACPHERSONAll I know is that he is fit for military service in category B2.
