HC Deb 30 November 1955 vol 546 c224W
Mr. Emrys Hughes

asked the Secretary of State for War if he is aware that Private Francis McCabe, of the Royal Scots Fusiliers, has only 32 weeks reckonable service, although he has been in the Army for nearly two-and-a-half years; and since he is unlikely to make an efficient soldier but may be liable to remain in the Army for eight years, if he will now consider discharging him to resume his work in the coal mines.

Mr. Head

Private McCabe will be discharged when he completes his present sentence.
