HC Deb 10 May 1916 vol 82 c651
63. Mr. HOGGE

asked the Prime Minister whether he can provide an opportunity to the House to discuss the provisions of special allowances for men called up under the Military Service Bill before that Bill leaves this House?

The PRIME MINISTER

No, Sir; I am afraid it will not be possible to adopt this suggestion.

Mr. HOGGE

Are not those of us who represent those married men among our constituents entitled to discuss what they should get before the Government come to a decision?

The PRIME MINISTER

I do not think that it can be discussed before the Military Service Bill leaves the House.

Mr. HOGGE

Will my right hon. Friend give us an opportunity of discussing it before the tribunals are finally elected?

The PRIME MINISTER

I will consider that.

Mr. HOGGE

Thanks, very much.
