HC Deb 07 July 1947 vol 439 c1770
7. Colonel Gomme-Duncan

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India if he is now in a position to make an announcement on the subject of the pension terms for officers of corps of the Indian Army not governed by the Royal Warrant.

Mr. A. Henderson

I assume that the hon. and gallant Member is referring to officers of the technical and specialist services of the Indian Army. I am glad to say that the Government of India have agreed to apply the 1945 Pension code to those officers in the same manner as it has been applied to combatant officers of the Indian Army. This decision also applies to the I.M.S.
