HC Deb 18 May 1938 vol 336 c411W
Mr. Anstruther-Gray

asked the Minister of Labour whether it has yet been decided to include in the King's Roll scheme men disabled on active service since the conclusion of the Great War; and, if not, whether any special steps are taken to provide for the employment of these disabled men?

Mr. E. Brown

The King's Roll National Council gave further careful consideration to this question at their meeting on the 10th May. They were fully sympathetic to the claims of men disabled on active service since the nth November, 1918, but felt that it would cause confusion if they were admitted to the King's Roll scheme which has always been concerned with men disabled during the Great War. The Council were satisfied that assistance in finding employment is given to these men by Regimental Associations and similar organisations. My hon. Friend may rest assured that Employment Exchanges also do their best to help them.
