Lieutenant-Colonel MURRAYasked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware, that the demobilisation of Lieutenant H. S. Cotterill, 1/lst Notts (Sherwood Rangers) Yeomanry, who left his farm in Canada and came to England to join the Army in August, 1914, was approved some weeks ago, but that the necessary release documents have not been issued to him; and whether, in view of the necessity for this officer to reach Canada in time for this year's seeding, he can arrange for his immediate release?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLLieutenant Cotterill, 1/lst Notts (Sherwood Rangers) Yeomanry, was ordered to proceed to the Repatriation Camp, Winchester, on the 7th March, 1919. There are at present 231 officers on the strength of the camp awaiting passage to Canada, nearly all of whom are in the same position as Lieutenant Cotterill. Every endeavour is being made to expedite the return to Canada and other countries of officers and men awaiting repatriation overseas.
