May I ask the hon. Gentleman one question? He said the dependant's allowance was purely a wartime measure. May I ask if it is the intention of the Government to continue it for the period of the National Service Bill which has just been before the House, because if his argument in favour of the dependant's allowance was in order at a time when we were at war, it is equally in order while the National Service Bill is in operation.
