HC Deb 06 December 1939 vol 355 c679W
Mr. A. Edwards

asked the First Lord of the Admiralty whether his attention has been drawn to the condition of relatives of men lost on Admiralty vessels, and if he will take steps to relieve these bereaved people without the interrogation at present necessary?

Mr. Shakespeare

I would refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave to the hon. Member for Colne Valley (Mr. W. S. Hall) on the 26th October. Other dependants in receipt of a dependant's allowance are similarly treated. In neither case is any interrogation involved.
