HC Deb 10 December 1919 vol 122 cc1323-4
80. Mr. FORREST

asked if any decision has been arrived at with regard to increase of the present scale of the pensions of Chelsea pensioners as a result of the advanced cost of living; and whether he is aware that public attention has already been called to the urgency of the matter in India?

Mr. CHURCHILL

The scale of pensions has been increased by Army Order 325 of September last. It applies to pre-war pensioners who have given satisfactory re-enlisted service during the War.
