HC Deb 14 March 1922 vol 151 cc1990-1W
Mr. ALLEN PARKINSON

asked the Minister of Pensions if he is aware that Private William Todd, No. 238,079, Yorkshire Light Infantry, who resides at 10, Canal Bank Warrington Lane, Wigan, has not been paid his war gratuity of £21, being classed as an absentee because he was home on furlough when the Armistice was signed and was under the impression that he would be demobilised in England; and whether he will have inquiries made into this case, with a view to the gratuity being paid?

Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANS

I have been asked to answer this question. I am making inquiries into this ease and will communicate the result to the hon. Member as soon as possible.
