HC Deb 17 August 1916 vol 85 c2081W
Mr. JACOBSEN

asked the Secretary of State for War if the Royal Flying Corps are still advertising for skilled cabinet makers; if Arthur Williamson, now in the 15th Working Company of the King's Liverpool Regiment, Park Hill Camp, Oswestry, volunteered in answer to this appeal by the Royal Flying Corps, passed the trade tests, but failed to pass the doctor owing to bad teeth; whether he was then sent into a labour company and is now doing work of exactly the same nature as is advertised for by the Royal Flying Corps but at ordinary soldier's Tate of pay; and whether, as this man in a first-class artisan, he will be transferred to the Royal Flying Corps?

Mr. FORSTER

Inquiry is being made, and my hon. Friend will be informed of the result as soon as possible.
