§ Sir C. Edwardsasked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that Private Idris Jones, Pioneer Corps, who was stationed at a camp in Perthshire, was sent by his commanding officer to his home at Argoed, Monmouthshire, to fetch his piano-accordion to help in the entertainment of the troops; that on D-Day he was sent overseas and Captain Parker, who was left behind, undertook to return the instrument to the boy's home, but so far it has not arrived; and will he make inquiries and see that it is returned.
§ Mr. A. HendersonInquiries are being made into these allegations. When they are completed I will write to my right hon. Friend.
