HC Deb 05 July 1923 vol 166 c627
50. Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

asked the Prime Minister when it is proposed to introduce the Bill dealing with the addition to the Pre-War Pensions (Increase) Act?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

I fear that there will not be time to introduce this Bill until the autumn.

Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKE

Is my right hon. Friend considering the question in all its aspects?

Sir W. JOYNSON-HICKS

I had the privilege of drafting the Bill.

Captain BERKELEY

Does that amount to a pledge that the Bill will be introduced in the autumn?

Sir W. JOYNSON - HICKS

Oh, certainly.
