HC Deb 05 February 1918 vol 101 cc2141-2W
Colonel FABER

asked the Minister of National Service if there is any order by which members of local tribunals should be debarred from sitting on cases in which the applicants are relations to or employed by the members; and whether such cases should by law go to county tribunals?

Mr. HAYES FISHER

I have been asked to reply to this question. The Regulations contain a provision that "a member shall not take part in the consideration of, or vote upon any question relating to, an application in the decision of which he is personally interested… "I may also point out that the National Service representative has an unrestricted right of appeal to the Appeal Tribunal.
