HC Deb 16 August 1920 vol 133 c599W
Mr. PALMER

asked the Secretary of State for War whether his attention has been called to the correspondence addressed to the War Office by ex-Private C. H, Heddon with reference to Major G. C. Evans and Lieut. Haydon; whether, in view of the War Office letter of 1st September 1919, he can say if the inquiries are yet completed; and whether it is intended to institute any proceedings in the matter?

Mr. CHURCHILL

The answer to the first two parts of the hon. Member's question is in the affirmative, and as regards the last part, I do not propose to take any further proceedings. On 16th September, 1919, Mr. Heddon was informed that a further communication would be addressed to him should circumstances render such a course necessary. These circumstances did not arise.
