HC Deb 05 November 1918 vol 110 c1949W
Colonel ASHLEY

asked the Pensions Minister whether, when it can be clearly shown that a discharged, disabled sailor or soldier can obtain permanent employment of a lucrative nature provided that he can be allotted a small allowance of petrol to enable him to use a motor-bicycle, he will be prepared to make the necessary recommendation to the Petrol Committee?

Sir A. GRIFFITH-BOSCAWEN

Several applications of the nature referred to have already been received; and after investigation my right hon. Friend has forwarded recommendations to the Petrol Control Department for the issue of petrol licences in such cases, with satisfactory results.
