HC Deb 03 February 1915 vol 69 c40W
Mr. BRIDGEMAN

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office why a soldier's dependant, who previous to the enlistment of her husband lived in Shropshire, and who since has gone to live in London, is not allowed the extra London rent allowance?

Mr. BAKER

The extra allowance was a concession to those who were living in London on mobilisation, and it was not considered necessary to give it to those who might move subsequently to London of their own choice.
