HC Deb 10 July 1917 vol 95 c1735
45. Mr. KING

asked the Prime Minister whether any disciplinary notice has been taken of those officials and persons censured in the Mesopotamia Report; and, if not, whether the decision to do so will be announced before Thursday or whether it is the policy of the Government to wait and see what debate in this House may produce.

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER (Mr. Bonar Law)

I propose, with the leave of the House, to make a statement at the end of Questions tomorrow as to the intentions of the Government in this matter.

Mr. LYNCH

Has it become the settled policy of the Government to cover up their blunders by a shower of decorations?
