HC Deb 30 July 1940 vol 363 cc1190-1W
Sir C. Rawson

asked the Secretary of State for War whether any relaxation is contemplated in the ruling that no compensation will be granted in respect of complete loss of business sustained through the curfew unless the premises are acquired by the military authorities?

Captain Crookshank

No, Sir. I am afraid it is not possible to single out specially for compensation one class of cases where necessary war measures may have caused loss of profits to individuals.
