§ 39. Mr. Grimstonasked the Secretary of State for War if any steps are taken in B.A.O.R. to obviate delays in trials, particularly in cases where officers or men otherwise due for release leave are involved.
Mr. BellngerYes, Sir. Instructions were recently issued to all commands stressing the need to avoid such delays which were contributed to in the case of B.A.O.R. by the lack of adequate defence facilities. This is being remedied.
