§ Mr. GOULDasked the Secretary of State for War whether, seeing that returned prisoners of war were promised early demobilisation under a recent Demobilisation Order, he will give instructions that these men should be released at the expiration of their furlough instead of being ordered to rejoin their units for further service?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLI would refer my hon. Friend to the answer given to the Members for Kettering and Bishop Auckland on the 25th of February. Repatriated prisoners of war who are eligible for demobilisation under current instructions may be demobilised during or at the end of their two months' furlough, if they so desire.
