HC Deb 11 August 1919 vol 119 c910W
Mr. LUNN

asked the Pensions Minister why the application for a gratuity sent in on the 1st May, 1919, by the father of the late Private Boothby, No. 26382, King's Liverpool Regiment, who was killed in France in April, 1916, has not received attention; and will he see that a favourable reply is given at once?

Mr. FORSTER

I would refer the hon. Member to my reply on the 8th July to the hon. and gallant Member for Holborn, and to the statement which appeared in the Press on the 25th July. It is hoped that this case will be reached very shortly.
