Mr. JOWETT

asked the Secretary of State for War if he will make inquiries as to who was responsible for sending No. 4613, Private Ambler, 3/6th West Yorks Regiment, on foreign service when he was under eighteen years of age, having regard to the fact that two months previous to his being drafted for foreign service the soldier's mother had made an application under Army Council Instruction 1186 of 1916, which was then in force; and if he will take steps to have the soldier treated in accordance with the Army Council Instruction under which the application was made?

Mr. FORSTER

The necessary inquiries are being made, arid orders have been issued for the soldier to be dealt with under the Instructions referred to if they are applicable.
