HC Deb 05 October 1939 vol 351 c2097W
Mr. R. C. Morrison

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that when Gunner C. A. Lewis, of 34, Clonmell Road, Tottenham, was called up as a reservist to the 4th Anti-Aircraft Battery, 2nd Regiment, Royal Artillery, on the 8th September, he handed over his clothes and personal belongings for despatch to his home address, and on the 12th September was discharged as medically unfit; that Lewis has since written six letters to his record office, Warley, Essex, explaining that he is without his clothes, money, identification papers, health and unemployment insurance cards, and is thereby unable to resume his employment; and will he take immediate steps to have this matter rectified?

Sir V. Warrender

An immediate report on this case has been called for, and I will communicate with the hon. Member as soon as I have the necessary information.
