HC Deb 18 November 1947 vol 444 c160W
62. Mr. S. Shephard

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury if he is aware that bona fide travellers who wish to go abroad on business grounds are being refused the daily allowance of eight pounds; and if he will state the conditions which govern the grant of such allowance.

Mr. Glenvil Hall

There are many kinds of business journeys. Some involve more expenditure than others, and not all of them justify the maximum allowance to which the hon. Member refers.
