HC Deb 27 June 1916 vol 83 cc701-2
46. Mr. GINNELL

asked the Prime Minister what in the nature, of reparation has been, or will be, made to the widow of Thomas J. Clarke, executed, for the watch and large sum of money on his person at the time of surrender; for the private property taken from her house after her husband's execution; for the shop goods, worth £300, appropriated or destroyed by the military who made the house a mili- tary station; whether any articles not destroyed will be restored and the rest paid for; and whether any civil tribunal will be set up to investigate such cases?

Mr. TENNANT

I am inquiring whether the facts are as they have been communicated to the hon. Member.

Mr. GINNELL

Will the right hon. Gentleman answer the last part of the question, Whether any civil tribunal will be set up to investigate such cases?

Mr. TENNANT

It must depend entirely on the answer which I receive to my inquiries.
