HC Deb 02 May 1918 vol 105 cc1712-3
64. Sir C. HENRY

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury if he will make the necessary arrangements in order to prevent the suspension of old age pension in the case of a woman whose husband has received a war bonus to meet the increased cost of living, thereby bringing his aggregate wage above the amount of joint income at which the pension at present ceases to be payable?

Mr. BALDWIN

I regret that I am unable to accede to the hon. Member's proposal.
