HC Deb 22 May 1919 vol 116 c597W
Captain BOWYER

asked the Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been called to the case of Private George Meads, No. 107014, Machine Gun Corps, A Lines, 5 Hut, 1st Reserve Battalion, Belton Park, Grantham; and whether he will stop this man from being sent abroad with a draft, in view of the fact that Private Meads was taken prisoner by the Germans at St. Quentin on the 21st March, 1918, and was released and returned through France in December, 3918?

Mr. CHURCHILL

For the reasons which I gave in answer to questions on this subject on the 25th February, I regret that no special action can be taken in the case referred to by my hon. and gallant Friend.
