HC Deb 08 March 1917 vol 91 c578W
Commander BELLAIRS

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether the men attached to the wireless section, Royal Engineers, stationed at Great Malvern, are experiencing difficulty in securing final leave; and whether he will make inquiries as to the reasons for this difference in treatment?

Mr. MACPHERSON

Leave is granted wherever possible; in a few cases men have had to be put on draft at the last moment to replace others for urgent reasons. Owing to delay in the departure of men who are moving shortly, it has proved possible to give leave during this week.
