§ Mr. JAMES MASONasked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether he will state the reasons why the question relating to an Army recruit's condition as to marriage, which was included and numbered nine on the old style attestation form (A. F. E 501), has been omitted from the attestation form now in use?
§ Mr. TENNANTIf the hon. Gentleman refers to the attestation form for recruits for the Regular Army, the answer is that the question regarding the marriage state has not been omitted; if he refers to the Territorial attestation form the answer is that the question was omitted as the result of representations made by Members of this House.
