HC Deb 03 April 1919 vol 114 c1393
100. Lieutenant-Colonel MALONE

asked the Secretary of State for War whether a primâ facie charge has now been received on behalf of Miss Violet Douglas-Pennant; and whether he will now carry out his pledges given on the 13th March to constitute a full inquiry into the circumstances surrounding her case?

Mr. CHURCHILL

The answer to the first question is in the negative. The second question accordingly does not arise.

Lieutenant-Colonel MALONE

Is it the fact that no communication has been received?

Mr. CHURCHILL

No, Sir. Communications have been received but they do not fulfil the condition which I made in the House and of which the House generally approved.
