HC Deb 10 May 1916 vol 82 c641
27. Mr. GILBERT

asked the Under-Secretary of State for War what family allowances were made to soldiers before the War in 1914; on what date were the amounts first increased and to what scale; and what are the present allowances to soldiers' wives and children?

Mr. FORSTER

The information asked for by my hon. Friend is contained in Appendix D of the Separation Allowance Regulations. I am sending him a copy of this Appendix.

79. Mr. ELLIS DAVIES

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether Robert Owen Davies, of 21, Garnon Street, Carnarvon, No. 2139, 6th Battalion Royal Welsh Fusiliers, who was wounded at Suvla Bay, discharged from the Army on 23rd February last as medically unfit, has received no allowance since 18th February; and whether, in view of the man's health, he will give immediate instructions that the proper allowance be paid him?

Mr. FORSTER

I am making inquiries into this case, and will let my hon. Friend know the result.
