HC Deb 26 November 1946 vol 430 c249W
116. Major Legge-Bourke

asked the Secretary of State for War what instructions are in force regarding the signing of letters of reference given to officers on discharge; and if all such letters can he signed by men.

Mr. Bellenger

Testimonials are furnished to officers only on request, as laid down in Army Council instructions. I presume that if an A.T.S. officer has signed a testimonial it is because the officer in question asked her for this document, but if the hon. and gallant Member has any information to the contrary perhaps he would let me have it.
