HC Deb 22 June 1916 vol 83 c352W
Mr. HOGGE

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether there are any special provisions for the treatment of soldiers deafened as a result of active service comparable to those for the blind?

Mr. FORSTER

Such soldiers would receive the regulated disability pension according to their incapacity, but there are no special provisions similar to those undertaken by Sir Arthur Pearson in the case of the blind.
