HC Deb 09 April 1919 vol 114 c2063W
Mr. HARTSHORN

asked the Secretary of State for War whether trained nursing sisters, Queen Mary's Army Auxiliary Corps, and general service members on being demobilised are granted a war bonus; whether any such bonus is given to Voluntary Aid Detachment nurses who have served during the War in France; and, if not, whether he is prepared to grant to Voluntary Aid Detachment nurses the same bonus as is allowed other nurses?

Mr. FORSTER

A war gratuity will be given to voluntary aid detachment nurses in Army employment. It is hoped to make an announcement on the subject shortly.
