§ Mr. Wilkesasked the Secretary of State for War whether he has yet been able to reach a decision regarding a remission of the remainder of the sentence imposed by a court martial in the case of the soldier, full particulars regarding whom have been given to his Department by the hon. Member for Newcastle, Central, especially having regard to the fact that the soldier spent about a year in prison in the Middle East before being handed over to the British Army authorities and has now served a considerable part of the court martial sentence subsequently passed upon him by the Army authorities.
§ Mr. M. StewartMy hon. Friend will by now have received a letter from me concerning this case.
