13. Lieut.-Colonel H. Guestasked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that the Plymouth City Council have decided to give those employés of the city corporation who are members of the Territorial Army full pay during their annual training in camp, without deduction on account of marriage allowance; and whether he will make representations to other local authorities to do likewise?
§ Mr. Hore-BelishaYes, Sir. It was with great pleasure that I learned the decision of the Plymouth City Council. I hope that the example set by them, and by a number of municipal authorities, whose assistance is warmly esteemed, will be followed by others who have not yet decided to give similar facilities.
