§ 3. Mr. Skeffingtonasked the Minister of Pensions if he will review the allowances paid to war widows in respect of children.
§ Mr. MarquandThese allowances are kept udder continual review and at present compare favourably with similar allowances provided under the other social service schemes.
§ Mr. SkeffingtonWill my right hon. Friend particularly consider the case of the woman with two or three children who, whilst she has been helped by the increases in recent years for which all pensioners are most grateful, must sometimes supplement her income by earning money outside—a step which in the case of larger families is rather undesirable?
