WAR MEDAL (DEFENCE FORCE, CROWN COLONIES).

HC Deb 24 May 1921 vol 142 cc49-50W

Mr. G. MURRAY

asked the Secretary of State for War whether arrangements have now been made to award a war medal to the members of the Defence Force of those Crown Colonies and Protectorates which are not defined as a theatre of war in Army Order XX of 1918, or Army Order 301 of 1919; if so, what are these arrangements; if not, whether the matter is still under consideration; and when is a decision to be arrived at in connection with it?

Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANS

The whole question is still under consideration.
