HC Deb 25 June 1900 vol 84 cc919-20
COLONEL PRYCE-JONES

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury if he will consider the advisability of introducing an Amendment to Section 8 of the Workmen's Compensation Act, 1897,. so that persons in the Naval and Military-service of the Crown or their dependents may be entitled to all that compensation: for injuries received which they would have been able to claim for injuries sustained in civil employment.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I think the hon. Member must have mistaken my intention. All I said in answer to a similar question was that the matter was being; dealt with by the Government.
