HC Deb 19 October 1954 vol 531 cc1014-5
17. Mr. Proctor

asked the Minister of Labour if he will arrange for the cancellation of the decision to call up John Greasby of the Patricroft Conservative Club, Eccles, for National Service, as he has served two years and three months as a gunner in the New Zealand forces, and has seen 19 months' service in Korea.

Mr. Watkinson

No decision on this case has yet been taken as inquiries into the facts are still proceeding. Meanwhile, the hon. Member can be assured that, subject to verification of the service in the New Zealand forces, there will be no question of calling upon Mr. Greasby to do further full-time service, but only part-time service on the Reserve.
