HC Deb 08 February 1915 vol 69 c228
28. Mr. HOGGE

asked the President of the Local Government Board what further steps the Government are taking, or propose to take, to deal with hospitality for Belgian refugees?

The PRESIDENT of the LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. Herbert Samuel)

There is no addition to the public statements already made which I could usefully make at the present time.

Mr. W. THORNE

May I ask what the Government are doing in regard to Belgian refugees of military age?

Mr. HERBERT SAMUEL

The question is not one for the Government, but for the Belgian military authorities and the Belgian refugees themselves.
