HC Deb 24 October 1918 vol 110 c954W
Mr. CROOKS

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether he is now in a position to state the result of the inquiry into the possibility of recognising the services rendered by the ex-soldier clerks employed in the War Office since 1901, by putting them on a pensionable basis after fifteen years' continuous service?

Mr. FORSTER

I regret that I cannot state the result yet. The matter is still under consideration, but I hope a decision will be reached shortly.
