HC Deb 07 December 1922 vol 159 c1967
31. Mr. EDWARDS

asked the Minister of Pensions whether protests have been received from large numbers of ex-service men and others against the withdrawal of pensions to widows and orphans whose husbands and fathers died more than seven years after discharge; and will he consider the withdrawal of Article 11, which gives the right to do so?

Major TRYON

I would refer the hon. Member to the detailed answer on this subject which I gave to the hon. Member for West Walthamstow (Mr. McEntee) on the 30th November, and of which I am sending the hon. Member a copy.
