HC Deb 10 May 1939 vol 347 c493W
Mr. A. Henderson

asked the Secretary of State for War whether it is intended that those persons who have qualified for certificates A and B in a school training corps will be required to undergo compulsory military training?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

It is not intended that the possession of certificates A and B shall secure exemption from compulsory military training, but, as I stated on 8th May, special knowledge will be taken into account in the course of the training.
