HC Deb 08 July 1948 vol 453 cc52-3W
Mr. Chamberlain

asked the Secretary of State for War when arrangements will be completed for an A.G.I. family passage for the wife of Company Sergeant-Major Stubbs, now serving in East Africa, regarding which the hon. Member for Norwood wrote to him on 5th February and on three subsequent occasions.

Mr. Shinwell

When my hon. Friend wrote in February a family passage was not permissible, as this warrant officer was due to return to the United Kingdom within 12 months on completion of his overseas tour. As he has now deferred his return a passage is permissible and is being arranged.
