HC Deb 10 November 1926 vol 199 c1083
45. Mr. WILLIAMS

also asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is aware that under the Superannuation Act, 1834, persons in receipt of a pension in respect of past service in a Government Department are deprived of part of their pension if subsequently they obtain a new appointment in another Government Department, provided their pension and the emoluments of the new position exceed the emoluments of the old position; and if he is prepared to consider an amendment of the Act?

Mr. McNEILL

The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative. I can see no reason for an amendment of the law on this subject.
