§ Mr. RamsdenIn a variety of circumstances; and in principle to make good some identifiable loss. If the hon. Member will let me know what kind of special compensation he has in mind, I will try to give him the details he wants.
§ Mr. SpriggsI have in mind the case of a National Service man who would like to have the opportunity of prosecuting the War Office. Will the hon.

§ Mr. RamsdenSo far as that question relates to a Question which the hon. Gentleman put to my right hon. Friend before the Recess about a specific case, I cannot add to what my right hon. Friend said in reply on that occasion.
