HC Deb 09 April 1925 vol 182 c2441W
Lieut.-Colonel HENEAGE

asked the Minister of Pensions if there are any firms on the King's Roll who, receiving a contract from the Government or local authorities, have dropped the proportion of ex-service men which entitles them to be on the Roll; and if the will see his way to enforce the continuous employment of the correct proportion of ex-service men?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

I have been asked to reply. The qualification for the King's National Roll is the employment of an agreed percentage of disabled ex-service men. I have no evidence that firms on the Roll are not complying with this requirement. If the hon. and gallant Friend has any instances in mind, and will furnish me with details, I shall be pleased to make inquiries.
