HC Deb 29 April 1941 vol 371 c352W
Mr. Rhys Davies

asked the Minister of Pensions whether he will consider granting the same compensation for injuries to women as to men civil defence volunteers?

This matter was given full consideration by the Government when the scales of compensation under the Personal Injuries (Civilians) Scheme, 1941, were settled, and the rates laid down in the Scheme are in accordance with the Government's decision.
