52. Mr. Macdonaldasked the Minister of Defence whether he will incorporate Polish soldiers, now settled in this country, in the Class Z and comparable Reserves.
§ Mr. ShinwellMembership of Class Z and equivalent Reserves is confined to men who have been released from service under the Armed Forces (Conditions of Service) Act, 1939, or the Naval and Marine Forces (Temporary Release from Service) Act, 1940, and are liable under those Acts to recall during the present emergency. There are probably a few Poles still living in this country who204W joined the United Kingdom Forces as volunteers during the war and were released under those Acts. Ex-members of the Polish forces, however, are not subject to those Acts and are not therefore liable to recall.
