HC Deb 10 June 1985 vol 80 c304W
Mr. Dalyell

asked the Secretary of State for Defence (1) what response he is making to the request to him by the conference of the Royal British Legion to reopen cases in which soldiers of world war one have been found guilty of cowardice;

(2) if he will assess modern medical evidence which could have a bearing on cases of soldiers convicted of cowardice in world war one.

Mr. Lee

A reply will be made to the Royal British Legion when the matter has been fully considered in the light of all factors, including modern medical evidence.
