§ Mr. THOMAS DAVIESasked the Secretary of State for War if he will state the result of his promise to look into the case of the repatriation of Sergeant-Major William Rees Davies, late M2/153,391, Royal Army Service Corps (Mechanical Transport), made a fortnight ago, seeing that this man has heard nothing for some months in spite of repeated applications to be sent to London, Ontario?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLSergeant-Major Davies's claim to repatriation has now been approved. The delay in this case arose owing to insufficient evidence having been 2255W given in the first instance as to his domicile in Canada. He elected for a deferred passage, and men who are elected for an immediate passage are therefore entitled to prior passages. His name has been passed to the Passage Section, and if his present address is communicated to the Officer in Charge, Repatriation Records, Winchester, every effort will be made to expedite his return to Canada.
