§ 64. Sir Ronald Ross (for Lieut.-Colonel Sir William Allen)asked the Home Secretary whether he is aware that British police widows, prior to September, 1918, are without pension and are depending on charity for subsistence, while widows after that date are in receipt of pensions; will he introduce legislation to remedy the grievance of those widows who are without pensions; and, if so, when?
§ Mr. LloydThis matter has often been considered, but my right hon. Friend cannot hold out any hope of legislation to alter the position.
