asked the Minister for Defence whether a balance of £5 18s. is due to Mr. Daniel Carolan, of Mailcoach Road, Sligo, in respect of dependents' allowance for his son, Volunteer William Carolan, No. 15497, now stationed at Tuam, Co. Galway, and, if so, when this balance will be paid.
WRITTEN ANSWERS. - SLIGO DEPENDENT'S ALLOWANCE.
Mr. Daniel Carolan was paid dependent's allowance up to the 18th December last, the date of his son's re-attestation. I may add that under Defence Order No. 30, dated the 8th October last, an allowance is not issuable to the dependents of an unmarried soldier after the re-attestation of the soldier.
