§ 21. Mr. G. LOCKER-LAMPSONasked the Secretary of State for War whether, as late as July last, he still retained the services of persons to carry wounded soldiers from railway stations to hospitals although there was nothing to do; and if he is aware of a case of a gentleman who 1524 was so retained up to July last or later and paid a salary, and that a telephone was kept for him at his house in spite of his request for its removal?
§ Sir A. WILLIAMSONArrangements for conveying wounded personnel are in many cases made locally by the various military commands. I am not aware of the case to which the hon. Member refers, but I am calling for a report and will let him know the result.
