HC Deb 28 November 1917 vol 99 c2008
62. Major HUNT

asked the Prime Minister whether it is the intention of the Government to give free passages to those of the men who have served outside the United Kingdom in this War under the Admiralty and the War Office who may desire to migrate to one of the Dominions?

Mr. BONAR LAW

I cannot add anything to the previous replies on this subject.

Major HUNT

Can the right hon. Gentleman tell us whether he is going to do anything about these men going abroad? Is he going to do anything to find them work, and can he say whether he is going to give them a free passage or not?

Mr. BONAR LAW

My hon. and gallant Friend must not assume that he is the only person interested in that subject. It is being discussed as thoroughly as it can be by a Government Committee, and this is not simply a question of a free passage.
