HC Deb 23 January 1940 vol 356 cc359-60
28. Mr. Woodburn

asked the Secretary of State for War whether the announcement made by the Government that young men under 20 years of age would not be sent abroad applies to all sections of the Army; and, if so, whether he will take steps to arrange for this being carried out in the case of Territorials?

Mr. Stanley

The hon. Member is under a misapprehension as to the terms of the announcement, and I would refer him to the answer given by my predecessor to the hon. Member for Dumbarton Burghs (Mr. Kirkwood) on 17th October last.
