§ Mr. Parkerasked the Under-Secretary of State for Air what number of applicants in each of the last three years for short-service commissions have been re-fused respectively, after submitting an application form and without being granted an interview, and after having been interviewed; and what percentage these numbers formed in each case of the total number of applicants?
§ Sir P. SassoonI regret that the complete figures for which the hon. Member asks are not readily available, and as they could not be compiled without considerable labour I trust that he will not press for them.
