HC Deb 31 May 1949 vol 465 c1983

In line 26, leave out "1834 to 1946."—[Mr. Glenvil Hall.]

7.15 p.m.

Mr. Glenvil Hall

I beg to move, in page 47, line 35, at the end, to insert: 'presumptively eligible for a life pension,' in relation to a person, means nominated under Part II of this Act after his period of childhood and full-time education or under a nomination which states that he is permanently incapacitated. This Amendment inserts a definition for this class of pensioner. A definition was previously provided for them in Clause 17, but we there delete it. We want to put it in here slightly amplified.

Amendment agreed to.

Mr. Glenvil Hall

I beg to move, in page 48, line 26, to leave out "1834 to 1946."

Subsection (1) of the Clause, without the Amendment, defines the Superannuation Act as "1834 to 1946," and the present Bill. The reference to the Superannuation Acts so defined is not required in the context of the proviso.

Amendment agreed to.

Further Amendment made: In page 48, line 44, at end, insert: and references to a person by whom another person has been adopted shall be construed accordingly."—[Mr. Glenvil Hall.]
