§ 36. Mr. WINGasked the Pensions Minister if the Sunderland Rural District Council Naval and Military Pensions Committee is unrepresentative; if the populous districts of Bishopwearmouth, Ford, Hylton, and Fulwell are without any representative; and, if so, will he see that this state of affairs is rectified?
§ Sir A. GRIFFITH-BOSCAWENThe committee referred to by the hon. Member is unrepresentative in the sense that no. members are resident of the three most important of the districts named. I am informed that the local committee for the county within whose discretion are the appointment and constitution of subcommittees are about to remedy this.
§ Sir A. GRIFFITH-BOSCAWENThe committee has undertaken to do it. If it does not do it we will take the necessary steps.
