HC Deb 07 March 1929 vol 226 cc529-30
4. Major OWEN

asked the Minister of Pensions whether he will give particulars of the attendance on the North-west Wales war pensions committee of the members from South Carnarvonshire during the last three years?

Captain MARGESSON (Lord of the Treasury)

In the absence, owing to illness, of my right hon. Friends, I have been asked to reply. I am informed that the records kept by the Ministry show that the attendance of members from South Carnarvonshire has been approximately the same on an average as that of the whole Committee.

Major OWEN

Is the hon. and gallant Gentleman aware that at the present time there is not a single representative on that Committee for the whole of South Carnarvon, and is it not possible for the Minister to make arrangements to have this extensive part of the county represented on the Committee?

Captain MARGESSON

I will certainly refer the hon. and gallant Member's question to my right hon. and gallant Friend.
