Arising out of the resolution adopted by the Dáil on 16th instant in regard to British ex-servicemen, the Executive Council have decided to set up a Committee with the following terms of reference:—
(1) To ascertain, after consultation with representatives of the British ex-servicemen or otherwise as the Committee may determine:
(a) the nature and extent of the claims made by such ex-servicemen against the British Government in respect of rights alleged to have arisen out of past services,
(b) the nature and extent of their claims, if any, against the Government of the Irish Free State in respect of alleged discrimination against them in regard to employment on public works or otherwise,
and
(2) to report to the Executive Council.
The personnel of the Committee is at present under consideration.
