§ LORD TEMPLEMOREMy Lords, on behalf of my noble friend Lord De La Warr, I beg leave to introduce a Bill to make provision with respect to constables and firemen serving in His Majesty's Forces during the period of the present emergency, to suspend the right of constables and firemen to retire on pension during that period, to provide that war injuries shall be deemed to be non-accidental injuries for the purpose of enactments and other instruments relating to the pensions of constables and firemen, to amend Section 16 of the Fire Brigade Pensions Act, 1925, and for purposes connected with the matters aforesaid. I beg to move that the Bill be read a first time.
§ Moved, That the Bill be now read 1a.—(Lord Templemore.)
