Nuneaton, Military Service Tribunal Report 1916

            Men who got called up for service could appeal to a local Military Service Tribunal. Reasons included health, already doing important war work or moral or religious reasons. The last group became known as the Conscientious Objectors.

Local Military Service Tribunal’s were set up to enable men who had received their call up papers to appeal against their call up. Contrary to the common belief that they were primarily for Conscientious Objectors,  in fact most appeals were based on a claim that their work was of an important nature (farming etc), family were dependent on them or on health grounds.     

In many cases men’s employers would lodge the appeal based on their need to retain the man to carry out important work. An appeal could also be lodged against theTribunal decision at an Appeals Tribunal. Bedsworth & Foleshill News 1 July 1916
