HC Deb 20 May 1941 vol 371 c1407W
Mr. Rhys Davies

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he has now completed his inquiries into the alleged ill-treatment of conscientious objectors at a town, of which he has been informed; and, if so, with what results?

Captain Margesson

The sergeant concerned in the allegations to which my hon. Friend refers has been tried by court-martial and acquitted on all the charges. Full details have not yet been received, but I will communicate with my hon. Friend as soon as these are available.
