§ 139. Mr. Bartlettasked the Secretary of State for War whether he is aware that many men returning from the Mediterranean are not told that they are entitled to a free allowance of cigarettes at the Forces' transit camps; and if he will issue orders that all ranks should be more fully informed in advance of what facilities are available.
§ Mr. LawsonIn overseas stations 50 cigarettes are issued free each week whether the soldier is with his unit or in a Transit Camp. I have no reason to suppose that this is not well known to all troops serving overseas, but if the hon. Member will send me particulars of any case where it appears that the correct issue is not being made, I will gladly make investigations.
