HC Deb 22 November 1916 vol 87 c1433W
Mr. SNOWDEN

asked the Secretary of State for War why a demand for the recovery of 9s. 6d., forfeiture of nineteen days' pay in respect of Private J. Grey, 9th Argyle and Sutherland Highlanders, has been sent to his father, especially in view of the fact that four days before the receipt of this demand the father was notified that a son had been killed in action, two days later he was notified that a second son had been killed in action, and, two days later still, received this demand for the recovery of 9s. 6d. on account of one of these sons?

Mr. FORSTER

I will have inquiry made, and let my hon. Friend know the result.
