§ Mr. G. Griffithsasked the Secretary of State for War whether the dependants of men fighting in the forces to-day who are from the Channel Isles and whose dependants are still living there will get their dependants' allowances when they come to the British Isles; will they also get their back pay; and is there any news of the people who are still living there as their relatives cannot get any news?
§ Mr. LawAs regards the first part of the Question, I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer given yesterday by my right hon. Friend to my hon. Friend the Member for North Camberwell (Mr. Ammon), of which I am sending him a copy. As regards the second part, my hon. Friend will now, no doubt, have seen the recent statement by the Director of the Foreign Relations Department of the War Organisation of the British Red Cross Society and Order of St. John, explaining that the only method of communicating with the Channel Isles or any other territory in enemy occupation is through the Red Cross and the International Red Cross.
