HC Deb 08 December 1922 vol 159 c2203W
Mr. PIELOU

asked the Prime Minister if it has now been decided that the Ministry of Pensions shall be responsible for the 700 ex-service men who are suffering from mental trouble and were recently transferred from the care of the Ministry of Pensions to the boards of guardians?

Major TRYON

I have been asked to reply. The Government do not see their way, in view of the grave question of general principle involved, to alter the Royal Warrants in the sense suggested.
