§ 61. Rear-Admiral SUETERasked the Minister of Pensions whether his attention has been drawn to the case of a widowed lady, with three children, who, as stated in a letter published in the Press of 25th June, from Vice-Admiral Dent, has lost £86 per annum for the rest of her life because a circular forwarded by the Paymaster-General did not reach her, with the consequence that she was four months late in making application for the increase of pension to which she was eligible; and whether he will take steps to secure to this widowed lady her proper pension?
Lieut.-Colonel STANLEYThis question apparently refers to the same case as that mentioned in the question asked by the hon. Member for Peckham on the 25th instant. I am sending my hon. and gallant Friend a copy of the question and the answer given.
