HC Deb 02 March 1922 vol 151 c534
4. Mr. SUGDEN

asked the Minister of Pensions if he will consider the desirability of granting full disability pensions to all men with a war disability while they are unemployed, in view of the number of disabled ex-service men among the applicants for Poor Law relief, thus relieving the local rates, which otherwise help to maintain them?

Mr. MACPHERSON

I would refer my hon. and gallant Friend to the answer which I gave to the hon. Member for Abertillery (Mr. G. Barker) on the 9th February.
