§ 9. Wing-Commander Jamesasked the Secretary of State for War whether the Army and Air Force Courts Martial Committee has held any meetings; and what steps are being taken to ensure that the evidence received by the committee shall be comprehensive?
§ Sir V. WarrenderAs regards the first part of the question, the committee has already held two meetings. As regards the second part, I understand that the committee is anxious to obtain all shades of opinion. Any person wishing to produce suggestions for the improvement of the courts-martial system should write direct to the Secretary of the committee at the War Office. Whilst all constructive proposals will be welcome, I would remind hon. Members that the committee is not concerned to review individual cases.
§ Lieut.-Commander FletcherIs the committee taking any steps to obtain evi- 905 dence regarding courts-martial procedure in other countries?
§ Sir V. WarrenderI would rather like to have notice of that question.
