HC Deb 08 March 1920 vol 126 c928W
Colonel ASHLEY

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will reconsider the decision not to award the 1915 star to the dependants of the men of the 7th Royal Scots and others who were killed or disabled in the Gretna railway disaster on the 22nd May, 1915, and also-to those who, being in that train and about to embark for active service, did not subsequently go overseas until 1916 owing to the accident referred to?

Mr. CHURCHILL

I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the replies to similar questions asked by the hon. and gallant Member for Leith (Capt. W. Benn) on the 13th February, 1919, and 18th August, 1919.
