HC Deb 12 November 1940 vol 365 cc1560-1
16. Mr. Edmund Harvey

asked the Secretary of State for War whether the report of the inquiry into allegations concerning the ill-treatment of conscientious objectors has been completed; and whether he is in a position to make a statement on the action which he proposes to take as a result of the inquiry?

Mr. Eden

The report has not yet been completed. A great deal of evidence was taken, and in consequence the preparation of the report is taking time.
