§ 6. Lieut. - Commander KENWORTHYasked whether free travelling passes will be granted to poor people wishing to visit the graves of near relatives in France and Flanders; and, if so, when this boon may be expected?
§ Mr. FORSTERI regret that, having regard to the expense involved, which would possibly amount to over £2,000,000, it is not considered practicable to issue free travelling passes to relatives to visit the graves of deceased soldiers in France and Belgium.
§ Lieut. -Commander KENWORTHYWill the Secretary of State for War have an inquiry made as to the number of people who want to go, and if it is not too great, will he consider allowing these poor people this opportunity?
§ Mr. FORSTERI am afraid I cannot undertake that.
