§ 6. Mr. PILCHERasked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether the scheme for endowing the All-India services other than the Indian Civil Service with a family pension fund has made any further progress since the Lee Commission asserted in March, 1924, that actuarial experts were then engaged upon it, and expressed surprise that so long a. delay had occurred in supplying a need in favour of which there was a strong consensus of opinion?
§ Earl WINTERTONYes, Sir; a provisional scheme for the institution of a family pension fund for the European members of the superior services other than the Indian Civil Service has been drawn up and sent to the Government of India for their consideration.
