§ 77. Mr. MOUNTasked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether he is aware that repayment of proficiency pay is being demanded from men now serving in the National Reserve whose former service has been in the Royal Navy, even in cases where such men have been promoted to the rank of non-commissioned officer in the force in which they are now serving; and whether, in view of the hardship which is thereby entailed on such men, he will see whether the order demanding such repayment can be cancelled?
Mr. BAKERIf the hon. Member will give me particulars of the cases which he has in mind, steps will be taken to see that no undue hardship is caused by the recovery of these overissues.
