HC Deb 08 December 1927 vol 211 c1557
28. Mr. ROBINSON

asked the Minister of Health whether, seeing that the Widows', Orphans' and Old Age Contributory Pensions Act, 1925, makes no provision for the payment of pensions to the women aged 65 and under 70, wives of insured men who have reached the age of 70 prior to 2nd January, 1928, he proposes to take any steps to place these women on an equal footing as regards pension with the wives of insured men who are between the ages of 65 and 70 on 2nd January, 1928?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

I would refer the hon. Member to the Prime Minister's reply to his question on the same subject on 23rd November.
