HC Deb 19 October 1916 vol 86 c746W
Mr. SNOWDEN

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether, in addition to the usual separation allowance, a soldier's dependant can claim any allowance for rent in a provincial town under the Civil Liabilities Committee scheme?

Mr. HAYES FISHER

Subject to the Regulations, assistance under the Civil Liabilities scheme may be granted to a soldier, whether married or unmarried, to enable him to meet certain obligations, including rent, for which he is responsible and which he could not otherwise meet without serious hardship.
