HC Deb 11 June 1918 vol 106 c2038W
Mr. MOUNT

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that the German prisoners of war at Lambourn were given a holiday on Whit Monday, though agricultural labourers in the district were working on that day; and whether, in view of the demand for labour on the land at this time, he will arrange that full use shall be made of prisoner labour?

Mr. MACPHERSON

I regret that my inquiries are not yet complete, but I will write to my hon. Friend as soon as possible.
