HC Deb 27 June 1918 vol 107 cc1240-1W
Mr. FALCONER

asked the Minister of National Service if he will state the contribution fixed for each of the counties of Scotland to the total quota of 5,500 men between the ages of eighteen and thirty-one, inclusive, agreed to be provided for Scotland; and what is the number of men posted to the Army from each county and the number still remaining to be posted?

Mr. BECK

The contributions to the total quota of 5,500 agriculturalists between the ages of eighteen and thirty-one was fixed locally by agreement between the Scottish Board of Agriculture and the Director of National Service in Scotland. I am making inquiries, and will communicate further with the hon. Member.
