HC Deb 07 November 1916 vol 87 c68W
Mr. MORRELL

asked the Secretary of State for War whether those single men of forty-one who were exempt from service under the first Military Service Act as having offered themselves for service and been rejected while under the age of forty-one, and who attained the age of forty-one before the second Military Service Act had passed into law, are still liable to be called up under the new Order, having regard to the fact that they already were over military age at the time when that Act was passed?

Mr. FORSTER

Men who were forty-one before the second Military Service Act became law are not liable to be called up.
