Until 30 days after the Statutory date for the termination of the War, which has not yet been announced, officers and ratings of the Royal Navy who may be injured and the dependants of those who may be killed on service in connection with the present disturbances in Ireland, have pension rights upon the war scale. Civilians in Ireland are entitled to the same regulated compensation as civilians injured in the United Kingdom, but the hon. and gallant Member is doubtless aware that they can also claim compensation under the Criminal Injuries (Ireland) Act, 1919.
