HC Deb 19 June 1951 vol 489 c212
6. Sir I. Fraser

asked the Minister of Pensions if he can now make a further statement on raising the motor car allowance for the disabled.

Mr. Simmons

My right hon. Friend has decided to increase to £52 10s. per annum the allowance towards maintenance and running expenses paid to those war pensioners to whom my Department has supplied motor cars. The increased allowance will take effect from 10th April, 1951, and application will not be necessary.

Sir I. Fraser

Thank you, Sir.
