HC Deb 26 October 1916 vol 86 c1342W
Mr. G. TERRELL

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is now in a position to state what extension of time will be allowed to the recently called-up men in Group 46 for appealing and for joining the Colours?

Mr. LLOYD GEORGE

The tribunals have directions to receive applications from these men within seven days after the calling-up notice has been sent to them, and it is hoped they will use their discretion in cases where it is shown to their satisfaction that the applicant for a sufficient reason has not been able to lodge an application in the prescribed time.
