HC Deb 16 July 1919 vol 118 c404W
Mr. F. C. THOMSON

asked the Secretary of State for War why soldiers who are category A 1 and liable for service overseas, but who are retained at home to perform services in connection with demobilisation, are not granted a free railway warrant every six months?

Mr. CHURCHILL

Under existing Regulations soldiers serving in the United Kingdom who are liable for service abroad may be given leave with free railway warrants at the end of three months' service, and thereafter at intervals of six months, provided they are not living with their families.
