HC Deb 18 November 1919 vol 121 c785
32. Mr. SITCH

asked the Secretary of State for War whether commanding officers have been instructed that no men in the Royal Engineers and Army Service Corps are to be demobilised at present; if so, whether many of these men are skilled in the various trades for which many men are required to aid the building and repairing of houses; and whether he will have the instruction cancelled?

Mr. CHURCHILL

The answer to the first part of the question is in the negative. The latter parts, therefore, do not arise.
