HC Deb 17 December 1919 vol 123 cc432-3W
Mr. DENISON-PENDER

asked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether the Almeric Paget Massage Corps was taken over by the War Office in 1916, thereby causing the members of this corps to come under all Rules and Regulations of military service; and whether it has now been decided to grant these members a war gratuity?

Mr. CHURCHILL

The Almeric Paget Massage Corps was recognised by the War Office in 1916 as the source of supply for the massage service; but this gave members of the corps no claim to any gratuity, as to which I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply on 24th November to the hon. Member for Yeovil.
