HC Deb 22 March 1949 vol 463 cc194-5
33. Mr. Skeffington

asked the Minister of Pensions how many motor cars have been made available to pensioners.

The Minister of Pensions (Mr. Marquand)

Up to date, 101.

Mr. Skeffington

Is the Minister satisfied that pensioners in general prefer this new conveyance to the old type of single seater car?

Mr. Marquand

It is quite optional. A pensioner who has a motor cycle may keep it if he so wishes.
