§ Mr. R. YOUNGasked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that a number of sea-going engineers are unaware, owing to signing articles on board ship, that they are entitled to claim for injury and loss caused to them by enemy submarines during the War; whether they can still claim; if so, up to what date can claims be made; and from whom can claim forms be received?
§ Viscount WOLMERI would refer the hon.. Member to the answer I gave to the hon. Member for the Kirkdale Division of Liverpool (Mr. Pennefather) on 19th February. The question of the' admission of belated claims is still under consideration and I am not at present in a position to answer the second, third and last parts of the question.
