§ Sir A. Maitlandasked the Minister of Pensions if any arrangements have been made for the early issue of medals or badges to men who have been invalided from His Majesty's Army during the present war?
§ Sir W. WomersleyI am glad to be able to inform the hon. Member that the King's Badge, the institution of which was announced in the Press some time ago, is now being issued, as supplies are received, to members of the fighting forces and of the Merchant Navy invalided for disabilities attributable to service in the war. Already over 8,000 have been issued.
