§ MR. SHACKLETON (Lancashire, Clitheroe)To ask the Secretary of State for War if his attention has been called to the fact that the expenses of the candidates for dental appointments who were asked to attend at the War Office for an interview were not paid; and, if so, whether he proposes to reconsider this decision.
(Answered by Mr. Secretary Arnold-Forster.) It is not the practice to give travelling expenses in such cases, and there would not appear to be any sound grounds for making any alteration of the practice for the case in question.
