§ Mr. A. HERBERTasked the Prime Minister what steps have been taken to carry out the promises that he made with regard to resettlement after the War to those proprietors of one-man businesses who volunteered?
§ Sir M. BARLOWI have been asked to reply. The Department known as the Military Service (Civil Liabilities) Department was created to provide assistance towards meeting serious financial hardship caused to officers and men while serving in His Majesty's Forces and to assist discharged and demobilised officers and men to resettle in civil life. A large number of proprietors of "one-man businesses" who volunteered, as well as those who joined under the Military Service Acts, have been, and are still being, assisted, under this scheme, to resettle after demobilisation.
