HC Deb 06 March 1945 vol 408 c1801
15. Mr. Bowles

asked the Secretary of State for War why on 23rd February, 1945, every N.C.O. and private in a certain battalion which a fortnight earlier had removed from Clacton to Felixstowe had 2s. deducted from his pay for barrack-room damage at Clacton; and why this punishment was inflicted on men who had never been to Clacton owing to absence in hospital, etc.

Sir J. Grigg

Inquiries are being made into this incident about which I had not previously heard.
