HC Deb 06 April 1922 vol 152 cc2445-6W
Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty why the extra increase of bonus to 75 per cent. is applied only to established men and hired men discharged from the royal dockyards since March, 1920; whether the concession has been made retrospective for established men from March, 1915, but not for hired men; and can he explain why this distinction was made?

Mr. AMERY

I would be grateful if my hon. Friend would defer this question till next Wednesday.
