12. Mr. ROBINSONasked the Secretary of State for War if a man in receipt of pension for a post-War disability receives treatment allowances for himself and family when admitted into hospital for treatment of his disability; and, if not, whether any provision is made for the maintenance of the family while the man is undergoing treatment?
§ Captain KINGTreatment allowances are not paid when a post-War disability pensioner is admitted to hospital. But he continues to draw his pension during his treatment, and it is the custom of the Department to waive any claim against that pension in respect of the cost of his maintenance while in hospital.
