HC Deb 03 May 1948 vol 450 cc107-8W
Mr. J. McKay

asked the Secretary of State for War if he is aware that many members of the Forces died in Canada; that parents are anxious to visit their graves; and if he will arrange facilities for such visits in 1948.

Mr. Shinwell

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer given by my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer last Thursday. As regards the scheme for assisting relatives to visit war graves which I announced in reply to a Question by the hon. and gallant Member for Petersfield (Sir G. Jeffreys) on 13th April last, I regret that it is not possible eat present to extend that scheme to countries other than those mentioned in that reply.

Forward to
