HC Deb 29 July 1943 vol 391 cc1819-20W
Mr. R. Morgan

asked the Secretary of State for War whether any attempts are made to check the identity and activity of residents at service hostels and canteens in London who board there for weeks without a break?

Mr. A. Henderson

Before a man books a room in a service hostel his leave pass and his Army Book 64 is examined. Beds can only be booked for short periods and the man's pass is examined at each rebooking.
