§ 68. Mr. WHELERasked whether, under the War Office scheme of separation allowances, a mother-in-law who is a widow and has been maintained by her son-in-law, who has now enlisted, should be considered a dependant and receive the grants?
Mr. BAKERThe case quoted by the hon. Member has not hitherto been regarded as carrying a right to an allowance, but I would point out to him that it would fall within the definition of dependence proposed by the Select Committee on Pensions and Grants.
