§ Sir S. ROBERTSasked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether he is aware that, in the case of nursing sisters called for service abroad, the present allowance of £29 for kit is insufficient, and that in many instances these ladies have to spend from £12 to £15 in addition to such allowance to complete their kit; and whether he can take any steps in the matter?
§ Mr. FORSTERI shall be glad if my hon. Friend will communicate to me the figures on which his question is based. I do not recognise the allowance of £29 for kit.
