HC Deb 03 March 1924 vol 170 cc957-8
18. Lieut.-Colonel JAMES

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs whether he is aware that the Sudan Government is now withdrawing temporary allowances made to its pensioners calculated to meet the increased cost of living; and whether, in view of the fact that the index figure in this country, so far from diminishing, has increased, he will make representations on the subject to the Sudan Government?

The PRIME MINISTER

I have no information on this subject, but will cause inquiries to be made.
