23. Lieut.-Commander KENWORTHY

asked the Minister of Health if he is aware that in certain districts the widow's pension is paid on Tuesdays; what are the arrangements for paying it this year in view of Christmas Day falling on a Tuesday; and can arrangements be made in these cases for it to be paid before Christmas?

Mr. CHAMBERLAIN

Under standing arrangements, widows' and orphans' pensions due on the Tuesday on which Christmas Day falls this year will be paid, at post offices in England and Wales, on Monday the 24th December.
