§ Mr. Parkerasked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that the only uniform issued since 20th March to the East Sussex Auxiliary Police War Reserve has been three pairs of gloves per man and caps to some members; that their own clothes which are worn on duty have been worn out; whether they are to be paid for these; and whether they are to receive uniforms?
§ Sir J. AndersonThis is primarily a matter for the East Sussex Standing Joint Committee, but I am informed that uniforms have now been issued to all members of the East Sussex Police War Reserve except in one division, where issues will be made as soon as the uniforms, which have been despatched by the manufacturers, are received. The conditions of service of the Police War Reserve do not include the payment of any allowance for men doing duty in their own clothing.
