HC Deb 31 October 1944 vol 404 c656W
Sir W. Wayland

asked the Secretary of State for War why the claim of Mr. H. E. Pooley, of Adisham, near Canterbury, agreed to by the C.R.E. Canterbury, for £583, on 28th August, 1943, and passed on several occasions for settlement, has not yet been paid.

Sir J. Grigg

The evidence so far produced in this case does not establish that any payment can be made by the War Department. But, as my hon. Friend is no doubt aware, the case is now being re-examined to ensure that any justifiable claim is met.
