§ 24. Mr. Sorensenasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department what understanding now exists with the United States authorities in respect of affiliation orders against members of the United States Forces in this country or in respect of other arrangements for the assistance of their illegitimate children.
§ Major Lloyd-GeorgeThe courts in this country have the same power to make and enforce affiliation orders against members of the United States Forces here as they have in relation to British subjects. Arrangements are in force whereby any failure by a United States Service man to pay sums due under an affiliation order is brought to the notice of the United States Service authorities, and this is usually sufficient to secure payment.
