HC Deb 16 December 1919 vol 123 c213
13. Captain HACKING

asked the Secretary of State for War whether, in view of the difficulty experienced by demobilised soldiers or their dependants in correctly interpreting the amount of war service gratuity to which they are entitled under the December, 1918 Army Order and the consequent frequent requests for an explanation, he will issue instructions that, on each form sent out to a soldier or dependant on which is intimated the net sum due on account of war gratuities, the amount already credited to the soldier's account under Articles 1117 and 1118 of the Royal Warrant will also be stated?

Mr. CHURCHILL

Yes, Sir; I have given instructions that this shall be done.
