asked the Minister for Defence if he can state why no payment has yet been made to Mrs. Thomas McGovern, The Cottage, Dowra, Co. Cavan, for work done in washing and darning for the Troops in Dowra, for a period of nine months, and if he is aware that she was engaged for that work by O.C. Masterson and Q.M. Dundass, and whether he will see that the amount due, £95, is paid forthwith.

I regret the delay in dealing with Mrs. McGovern's claim. In all probability it will be settled within a week.
