§ Mr. CROOKSasked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether, in 685W connection with the revised scheme of children's allowance to officers, he will reconsider the possibility of fixing the allowance more in accordance with the number of children, so that an officer with more than four children will be entitled to extra allowance?
§ Mr. FORSTERThis point was very fully considered by the Government, and I fear I can hold out no hope of any alteration.
