HC Deb 03 March 1920 vol 126 c431
44. Major BLAIR

asked the Minister of Health if his attention has been drawn to a case heard at the Bow County Court, when a watchman who had been in the employment of the Poplar Borough Council for many years claimed £3, which was made up of weekly sums of 4s., and to the evidence of the town clerk for the defendants that the only reason why this watchman was not given the 4s. weekly war bonus was because he had not a trade union ticket; and, if so, if he will say what steps he is taking in the matter?

Dr. ADDISON

I have seen a report of the case to which the hon. Member refers. Leave to appeal has been given, and I do not think I could properly make any statement in the matter at this stage.
