HC Deb 07 August 1941 vol 373 c2121W
Mr. R. Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that a considerable number of Home Guards, who are employed at a certain place, have resigned from their company because of their lack of confidence in the officers in charge of the company who are civilians of 30 and 26 years of age with no previous military experience, and that differences have arisen with the colonel-in-charge of the battalion; and whether he will cause an investigation to be made into the whole matter with a view to removing the cause of the difficulties?

Captain Margesson

I am having inquiries made into this case and will write to my hon. Friend as soon as possible.
