Oral Answers to Questions — British Army. – in the House of Commons on 7th May 1940.
asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether, in view of the incidence of increased taxation and travelling costs to men in the Forces, he will consider issuing to them more free travelling passes?
I would refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave on 23rd April to a Question by my hon. Friend the Member for Withington (Mr. Fleming), of which I am sending him a copy.
Has the right hon. and gallant Gentleman anything to add to the reply which he gave on that occasion, in view of recent happenings, particularly with regard to serving soldiers?
No, Sir. I have nothing to add to what I said then.
