§ Mr. PENNEFATHERasked the Under-Secretary of State for War whether, in the promised reconsideration of repayments by civilian prisoners returned from Germany of the moneys advanced to them for their journey home, retrospective consideration will be given to the cases of such men who were obliged to enter into such undertakings, but have found the obligations a burden upon scanty means?
Mr. J. HOPEI am informed by the Treasury that inquiry will be made into any case of hardship of which particulars are given.
