HC Deb 14 March 1916 vol 80 c1890
69. Mr. ASHLEY

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether the official assurances that in future disablement, allowance will be paid to those discharged from the Service owing to disease aggravated by the Service will apply equally to soldiers discharged from the Army from the same cause?

Mr. FORSTER

Yes, Sir.

Mr. RAFFAN

Will the action of the War Office be retrospective and wilt men who have been discharged receive pensions?

Mr FORSTER

I am prepared to deal with that in debate later to-day.

Mr. RAFFAN

Will the question be answered then?

Mr. FORSTER

As far as I can.
