HC Deb 31 March 1919 vol 114 c906W
Lieutenant-Colonel ARCHER-SHEE

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that Private M. Gardner, N. 64443, Suffolk Regiment, Isle of Grain, attested at Las Palmas early in 1916 on condition that, if called on, he would travel at Imperial expense, and that, hearing nothing further, he came across at his own expense; and whether, considering that no announcement was made in the Las Palmas Press that persons proceeding from abroad after 30th September, 1916, would not be entitled to a refund of their expenses, he can be allowed to claim his travelling expenses under Army Order 275, of September, 1918?

Mr. FORSTER

I will look into the case and communicate with my hon. and gallant Friend in due course.
