HC Deb 25 February 1915 vol 70 cc386-7
56. Sir EDWARD BEAUCHAMP

asked whether there are any arrangements by which soldiers when brought to hospitals in this country can exchange with ease, and at a proper rate of exchange, French notes in which they have received their pay; and, if so, whether notices to that effect may be posted up in the wards of the different hospitals?

Mr. BAKER

Arrangements have been made by which French notes brought by soldiers returning to this country may be exchanged at any Post Office at the rate of 9½d. to the franc. Instructions are being issued to officers in charge of hospitals for the posting of the necessary notices.
