§ 92. Mr. CROOKSasked the Home Secretary whether, in view of the services rendered by special constables during the War and the individual inconvenience and expense incurred, he will favourably consider the possibility of recognising their services by way of a monetary grant?
§ Mr. SHORTTThe matter is under consideration and I hope that some means of recognising the valuable services of the special constables may be agreed upon shortly, but I do not think that it can take the form of a monetary grant.
