97. Mr. WATT

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether his Department makes any financial provision for the wives and children of soldiers killed by accident on service, even if the accident occurs within the scope of the work of the soldier?

Mr. TENNANT

Yes, Sir. Pensions are granted to the widows of soldiers killed while in the performance of military duty.
