HC Deb 06 January 1916 vol 77 c1125W
Mr. W. THORNE

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office if he is aware that a number of men in the packers' and loaders' section of the Army Service Corps who enlisted in March and April last were informed that their pay would be 1s. 8d. per day whilst in England and 3s. per day when overseas; that such men in France are not receiving the extra pay and have applied to the commanding officer and have also petitioned the War Office without success; and if he will state whether it is the intention of the War Office to fulfil the promise made?
