HC Deb 26 November 1946 vol 430 c260W
Lieut.-Commander Hutchison

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware of the widespread dissatisfaction caused by the recent announcement of the release programme for 1947; and whether he will make a statement explaining why the rate of release of age and service groups has been reduced from an approximate rate of one group per fort night to one group per month.

Mr. Bellenger

I would refer the hon. and gallant Member to the statement made today by my right hon. Friend the Prime Minister.
