HC Deb 22 May 1919 vol 116 c612W
Lord H. CAVENDISH-BENTINCK

asked the Secretary of State for India if he will state why no frontier medal has been given for the operations connected with the blockade of the Mohmand frontier?

Mr. MONTAGU

Operations on or beyond the Indian frontier, which, if they had occurred before 1914, would have been held eligible for the Indian General Service Medal, will be eligible for any medals that may be awarded for active service during the War. The detailed application of this decision has still to be settled.
