HC Deb 22 May 1941 vol 371 c1580
44. Mr. Tinker

asked the Minister of Health what is the position of an old age pensioner who goes to reside in the Isle of Man, both in respect of his pension and supplementary pension, if he happens to be getting both?

Mr. E. Brown

So far as pensions under the Contributory Pensions Acts are concerned, arrangements exist under which old age pensioners, originally qualified in England, can continue to draw their pensions at any convenient Post Office in the Isle of Man. As regards non-contributory pensioners, I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer which my right hon. and gallant Friend the Financial Secretary to the Treasury gave my hon. and gallant Friend the Member for Coventry (Captain Strickland) on 14th August last.

Mr. Tinker

What about supplementary-pensions?

Mr. Brown

Where there are supplementary pensions payable to persons who hold pensions under the Contributory Pensions Acts, what I have said would apply.
