§ Mr. LORT-WILLIAMSasked the Financial Secretary to the War Office whether he is aware that Mary Otterway No. 928, Forage Corps, Army Service Corps, is suffering from disability caused by war service; and what provision, if any, is made by the War Office or by the Ministry of Pensions for meeting the hardship caused in this and similar cases of women injured on account of war service?
§ Mr. CHURCHILLI am afraid I cannot at present add anything to the official letter of the 12th instant, in which my lion. Friend was informed that under the Regulations as they stand Miss Otterway is not entitled to any compensation front Army funds. I should, however, like to point out that this woman was not injured on account of war service, and that there is no intention to treat cases of sickness at home generally otherwise than as at present under the National Health Insurance Act.
