HC Deb 02 April 1946 vol 421 c1104
64. Mrs. Middleton

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether he will arrange that the payment of cheques on behalf of war damage value payments can be made in such a manner as to prevent these being diverted to private accounts and the money they represent used for purposes other than those intended when the payments were made.

The Parliamentary Secretary to the Treasury (Mr. Whiteley)

I have been asked to reply. No, Sir. It is not proposed, as a general rule, to attach to value payments any conditions as to the purposes for which they shall be used.
