I am aware that among the cases referred to there are some which on merits call for reconsideration. I am glad to be able to inform my hon. Friend that, by an extention of arrangements initiated by my predecessors, I have now been enabled to secure that all cases in which additional evidence is furnished shall be fully considered and a suitable grant made, with the assistance of the Treasury, if the disability or death is now found, in the light of all the evidence available, to be due to service in the late War. The necessary arrangements are being made to enable such cases, if they are referred to local or regional offices, to be dealt with.
