HC Deb 10 December 1925 vol 189 c632
17. Mr. T. KENNEDY

asked the Minister of Pensions when the last meeting of the Central Advisory Committee was held; whether the committee had under consideration any resolutions passed by regional advisory councils; and, if so, what were the resolutions and the recommendations made?

Major TRYON

The last meeting was held on the 28th July last. The subjects under discussion at the meeting included matters raised in resolutions received both from advisory councils and war pensions committees in regard to medical treatment and allowances, children's allowances and time limits on fresh claims to pension. The Central Advisory Committee does not proceed by way of formal resolution, but various suggestions were made on the matters referred to which have been considered by me with a view to giving effect to them as far as may be found practicable.

Mr. KENNEDY

When will the next meeting be held?

Major TRYON

That has not yet been arranged. I hope in the New Year.
