HC Deb 29 June 1939 vol 349 c647W
Captain P. Macdonald

asked the Secretary of State for War whether, in view of the recent decision to reduce to 21 years the age at which soldiers can receive marriage allowances, he can state when it will be possible to reduce the present age of 30 at which Army officers are entitled to receive marriage allowances?

Sir V. Warrender

I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the answer I gave to my hon. Friend the Member for the South-Western Division of Norfolk (Mr. De Chair) on 7th June last.
