HC Deb 21 January 1930 vol 234 c34
71. Mr. FREEMAN

asked the Minister of Health whether he will consider introducing legislation giving the same amount to married couples over 60 as a pension on retirement from remunerative work that is now being received by younger married unemployed persons with families?

Mr. THOMAS

I have been asked to reply. No, Sir. Such a scheme is quite impracticable.
