HC Deb 28 June 1916 vol 83 c864W
Lord H. CAVENDISH-BENTINCK

asked the Financial Secretary to the War

Office whether he is aware that the recent Order forbidding field cashiers of the British Expeditionary Force to change either Treasury notes of £l and 10s. into French money or to cash postal orders inflicts hardship upon soldiers serving in outlying places which are not within reach of an Army post office; will he state the reason for this Order; and will he cause it to be revoked?

Mr. FORSTER

I have no information at present as to this Order, but inquiry is being made, and I will let my hon. Friend know the result.
