76. Mr. Graham Whiteasked the Minister of Pensions whether a child, born after the last war, is disregarded for pension purposes even if the parents were married before or during the war?
§ The Minister of Pensions (Sir Walter Womersley)A child born more than nine months after the end of the last war is not recognised for pension purposes. The circumstances in which a child born during the war or within nine months of its cessation is recognised, are set out in Article 24 (3) of the Royal Warrant of 1919, of which I am sending the hon. Member a copy.
§ 77. Mr. Horabinasked the Minister of Pensions whether he proposes to introduce legislation to amend the Pensions War rant?
§ Sir W. WomersleyI am calling a meeting of my Central Advisory Committee at an early date in order to consider certain minor changes in the Royal Warrant.
