HC Deb 05 April 1949 vol 463 c171W
14. Mr. M. Lindsay

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will increase the distance for eligibility for travelling allowances for members of the Territorial Army, in view of the fact that some officers and men were specially requested to rejoin their former units which, in some cases, are more than 15 miles from their homes.

Mr. Shinwell

In certain circumstances travelling expenses for members of the Territorial Army to cover the cost of journeys between home and Territorial Army centre are payable for journeys beyond 15 miles.
