§ Mr. W. THORNEasked the President of the Local Government Board whether the new Regulations relating to the calling up for military service of men who are, respectively, sole proprietors of their businesses are regarded as a sufficient reason for a rehearing of the cases of such men which were decided by the tribunals prior to the issue of the Regulations in instances where men have not actually been called to the Colours?
§ Mr. LONGI do not think that tribunals need regard the new provision as necessarily constituting a ground for rehearing in such cases. Each application must be considered by the tribunal on its merits.
