HC Deb 04 June 1942 vol 380 cc810-1
57. Mr. Parker

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will consider exempting men and women beyond 65 years of age from Section 7 of the Finance Act, 1941, in view of the uncertainty of the end of the war?

Sir K. Wood

I regret that I cannot adopt my hon. Friend's suggestion.

Mr. Parker

Is the Chancellor aware of the feeling of the old age pensioners in this matter?
