HC Deb 19 December 1916 vol 88 cc1321-2W
Mr. P. WHITE

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland whether the needs of the ex-teachers of national schools in Ireland for a war bonus are equal to those of present teachers; if so, will he see that they get similar treatment; and how soon may they expect it?

Mr. DUKE

I have explained, in answer to questions on the 16th November and 4th December, the reasons why the proposal cannot be adopted.
