88. Mr. R. RICHARDSON

asked the Secretary of State for War how many soldiers of Russian nationality are still officially posted as deserters from the British Army in the Labour Corps Record Office, Nottingham; and what steps are being taken to dispose of such cases?

Sir R. SANDERS

The reply to the first part of the question is 147. In regard to the second part, when any such man's whereabouts are known, a protecting certificate is issued and his Army record closed.
