Colonel Millsasked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that compensation for loss of access and use has been refused to owners and occupiers of dwellings who have been ordered by competent military authority to vacate such dwellings because they lie within areas needed for defence purposes on the ground that no actual defence works have been erected on the property concerned; and whether he will review that decision of his chief land agent and valuer?
§ Sir J. GriggI am investigating the matter and will communicate with my hon. and gallant Friend.
