HC Deb 23 March 1922 vol 152 c683W
Mr. WATERSON

asked the Secretary of State for War whether many volunteers for home service during the War, and of whom many served in danger zones, are feeling aggrieved at the refusal to grant them the Home Service or Victory Medal; and, seeing that it is imperative to honour our obligations to these men, will he reconsider the whole matter?

Sir L. WORTHINGTON-EVANS

I informed the hon. Member for Middlesbrough West (Mr. T. Thomson) on the 14th instant that, after careful reconsideration of this question from every point of view, the decision not to grant a Home Service Medal must be adhered to, and I regret that I can add nothing to that answer.
